Indiana VASIA Programs

If you are not from Johnson or Shelby counties, here are other programs to contact. While some programs are able to accept clients from neighboring counties, our program is only authorized to provide guardianship services within Johnson and Shelby Counties. Expanding services into an additional county would require approval from the county judge as well as a funding agreement with that county. Please review the directory to identify the program that serves your area. 

If you are interested in starting a VASIA program in your county, please contact Nick Parker, staff attorney at Indiana Supreme Court, Office of Court Services, Children and Families Division at nick.parker@courts.in.gov.
