Good to know
No separate state general assistance or paid family and medical leave program was confirmed in the official sources reviewed. The state uses HealthCare.gov for the ACA marketplace. The SUN Bucks note reflects official information confirming Indiana's 2025 nonparticipation; 2026 participation was not confirmed. Indiana opted out of SUN Bucks (Summer EBT) for 2026, so families cannot get this benefit this summer.
