Indiana Republican Diversity Leadership Series (IRDLS) close at the end
of the year. That means you only have 24 days to throw your hat in the
ring.
When the IRDLS started in 2020, the goal was to increase
engagement of under-represented Hoosiers in the Republican Party. Fast
forward 3 years, and we have not only increased engagement, we had six
IRDLS alumni on the ballot in 2023 and two were victorious! One example
from this year's municipal election is IRDLS alum

3 Ronald Morrell Jr., who became the first Black, Republican mayor in
Indiana and the first Black mayor of his hometown, Marion, unseating a
two term Democrat incumbent. Ronald called the diversity series life
changing and pivotal to his campaign. Additionally, IRDLS alum Tiffanie
Ditlevson was elected to the Fishers City Council.
Ronald's and
Tiffanie's successes are just the first of what will be a new standard
for the IRDLS. Alumni of the diversity series will continue to develop
their leadership skills and grow within our party. If you think you or
someone you know has what it takes to be a leader of tomorrow, consider
applying for the Indiana Republican Diversity Series
