Prosecutor’s Offices

The Indiana Prosecuting Attorneys Council (IPAC) is a nonpartisan, independent state judicial branch comprised of Indiana’s 91 prosecuting attorneys and their chief deputies. The organization maintains several programs designed to protect the most vulnerable Hoosiers. IPAC can help Indiana residents contact their local prosecutor’s child support office and obtain assistance applying for child support. These resources allow qualifying parents and guardians to secure financial and medical support for their children. Prosecutors can also assist by locating parents, establishing paternity, and instituting and enforcing support obligations.

IHCDA

Housing Assistance

Hoosiers who have fallen behind on rent or mortgage payments could qualify for assistance programs. The Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA) provides housing assistance to Indiana residents who meet certain qualifications. Eligibility is generally open to individuals who are behind on payments because of involuntary unemployment, underemployment, divorce, death of a spouse or medical hardship.

ICADV

Through the Safe Path Home initiative, the Indiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence (ICDAV) is working to let survivors of domestic and dating violence, stalking, sexual assault and human trafficking know that housing help is available.
