Research, materials, policies, or statements of any kind developed by or communicated in association with the “Center for Families” or the “Family Impact Seminars” are not the official policies or positions of Purdue University and should not be characterized as such.
Where does Indiana excel in policies and performance regarding housing its citizens, and where does it lag? What are the new and emerging housing challenges faced by our legislators? The 2019 Indiana Family Impact Seminar focused on the connection between housing, finances, and well-being for Hoosier families, as presented by the following speakers.
Family Impact Seminars share recent evidence and useful policy strategies in a nonpartisan setting to allow open dialogue to find common ground on policy and programs that affect Hoosier families for the upcoming legislative session.

The Indiana Family Impact Seminars provide objective, high-quality research on family issues to (a) build greater respect for and use of research in policy decisions; (b) encourage policymakers to examine policies and programs through the lens of family impacts; and (c) provide neutral, nonpartisan opportunities for legislators to engage in open dialogue for fostering relationships and finding common ground.
