The INARF Political Action Committee (PAC) exists to further the influence of the INARF members who make up Indiana’s provider community. The PAC is a powerful advocacy tool which allows INARF to financially support incumbents and candidates who embrace INARF’s policy positions and serve as friends and champions of the provider community.
INARF's legislative priorities & objectives to promote system preservation are:
As we look at the next two years, it is critical that we maintain or increase available funding, maximize Federal resources, and invest new resources and provider efficiency dividends into systems improvements and serving those on the wait list.
Within this context, the developmental disability service provider network is focused on working in partnership with consumers and the state toward mutually beneficial solutions.
