IAPAC is a non-partisan organization that serves as an incubator of those seeking office and a platform for political dialogue, representing the voice of over 200,000 Indian Americans in the Greater Houston area.
The Indian American community is a significant and growing force in politics and civic life, being the fastest-growing Asian American group in Greater Houston. Indian Americans are more likely to be registered to vote than the general population in the region, and they are also more likely to vote. In the 2020 presidential election, over 70% of Indian American voters in Greater Houston cast a ballot.
In addition to the growing number of Indian Americans holding elected office, they are also active members of various community organizations in Greater Houston that work on political and civic engagement. These organizations work to register voters, educate the public about important issues, and get out the vote on election day.
IAPAC seeks to bridge the gap between elected officials and the growing Indian American community.
Empower Indian Americans to become
citizens, register to vote, and run for
political office.
Conduct public forums with elected
officials to both address concerns and
enhance civic awareness.
Foster better understanding and
relations between the US and India
by encouraging visits to India.
Educating elected officials on
issues concerning the Indian
American community.
