Join Your Colleagues and be a Leader in the IARF Community.

Advancing policy priorities and budget objectives takes a community. The diverse Board of Directors and our team at IARF value the input and perspectives from the staff in our member organizations throughout Illinois. Working together we can advance and share best practices, advance priorities aimed at ensuring high quality services and supports, and ensure state and federal governments invest in community-based services and supports.
