About the Iowa Association of Community Providers


IACP supports Iowa community providers so they can fully support Iowans in need of behavior health and disability services. About 130 providers across the state look to IACP as a trusted resource in their work to help those they serve to lead more productive and fulfilling lives. This is reflected in IACP’s mission and vision.

 

Improving Iowa’s Future

By setting goals that align with this mission and vision, IACP is doing its part to advocate for Iowans who need it most. IACP’s goals for the future include:

  • Complete access to affordable, seamless services for all Iowans
  • Make competitive, integrated, community-based employment available for all Iowans
  • Encourage state investment in community-based services, NOT in institutional care
  • Give individuals the opportunity to participate as citizens in the community of their choice
