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.
