Biographical / Historical

Indiana Senior Corps Directors Association (ISCDA) was organized to unite all Senior Corps Directors into a state-wide organization. This association combines the three programs, Foster Grandparent Program (FGP), Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), and Senior Companion Program (SCP).

The objectives of ISCDA are mainly to educate federal, state and local communities concerning the impact of senior volunteers in society, to encourage Senior Corps Directors and associated personnel to participate in professional conferences and educational activities, and to promote quality training programs and in-service training in the field of volunteerism.

The directors of ISCDA have meetings three times a year and a two-day conference to discuss federal trends, problems, training, and conferences. ISCDA breaks down into three clusters, North, Middle, and South.
