Welcome to the Indiana Community Action Poverty Institute
The Indiana Community Action Poverty Institute engages in research and promotes public policies to help Hoosier families achieve and maintain financial well-being.
- We believe that when Hoosiers are financially stable, they can achieve their full potential and better contribute to their communities.
- We recognize that historic and ongoing discrimination on the basis of race, gender, ability, and other social identities contribute to economic inequities for Hoosier families.
- We know that policy plays an important role in dismantling inequities and in creating financial well-being for all.
- We value, gather, and share stories, statistics, and research studies to illuminate the opportunities and challenges that Hoosiers experience.
- We promote evidence-based solutions and build coalitions to engage in direct and strategic conversations with policymakers and the public to advance change.
The Institute is a program of the Indiana Community Action Association
Indiana’s 22 Community Action Agencies provide over 70 programs & services to Hoosiers throughout Indiana to address poverty and improve communities.
