Greensburg, IN — Indiana Family and Social Services Administration Secretary Jennifer Sullivan, M.D., M.P.H., announced Tuesday the 30 individuals who will serve on the new Indiana 211 Advisory Board. These 30 Hoosiers will advise Dr. Sullivan and her team through the continuing integration of IN211 as it becomes the newest division of FSSA.
Indiana 211 became a part of FSSA in July, following the unanimous passage of State Enrolled Act 267 by the Indiana General Assembly. The integration of IN211 into the state’s health and human services agency was also part of Gov. Eric J. Holcomb’s 2020 Next Level agenda. Already, IN211 and FSSA have collaborated to launch the Be Well Crisis Helpline.
The advisory board, as specified by legislation, must include at least two members representing different Indiana United Way entities, members who have experience working for or with the Indiana 211 Partnership or the Indiana 211 board of directors, members representing local service agencies that receive referrals from IN211, and members representing the types of human services provided.
Of those 30 new members, Christian Rust, Township Trustee, Washington Township in Decatur County was chosen.
