Overview

Mission

Recenter Indiana, inc. Is a leading nonpartisan, nonprofit organization founded in 2022. We remind all elected officials to recenter on the priorities of the people. Together we can inform and encourage hoosiers to vote and have a voice in their community.

What it reported doing in 2025

Redistricting listening sessionswhen Indiana lawmakers considered redistricting outside the normal census cycle, many hoosiers lacked clear information and opportunities for input. Recenter Indiana hosted nonpartisan listening sessions to provide balanced facts, gather public feedback, and share constituents' voices with community leaders and lawmakers. More than 150 residents attended three sessions in martinsville, beech grove, and fishers in october and november 2025. Feedback was collected through discussion and live polling, producing both qualitative and quantitative data that was shared publicly and delivered to legislators. Ultimately, the Indiana state senate rejected the redistricting proposal. Many senators cited constituent opposition to it.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
