On Feb. 15, Indiana ACT for Families joined Indiana Providers of Effective Autism Treatment (InPEAT) for an Advocacy Day at the Statehouse. The organizations banded together with ABA providers, therapists, Hoosier families and other autism advocacy groups to emphasize the impact that a Medicaid reimbursement rate cut would have on the access and quality of autism care in the state. Members spoke with Representatives and Senators from across the state to tell their stories and advocate for their support on the issue.

The Lieutenant Governor thanked the coalition for the work they are doing for Hoosier families and children with autism.
