MLC-INCOLSA Merger Update

Merger negotiations between MLC and INCOLSA continue. The merger design team has met three times, and the next meeting will be September 29 in Fort Wayne. We plan to give an update about the merger at the MLC Annual Meeting on October 2. Representatives from INCOLSA will be on hand to talk about their organization and their reasons for pursuing a merger. MLC staff and board members will discuss our reasons for engaging in these negotiations, and you will have an opportunity to ask questions during the business meeting.

We hope you will join us for our Annual Meeting. It promises to be a lively and informative day. If you cannot attend, but have questions about the merger, you can leave a comment here or send email to Pamela Grudzien, MLC Board Chair, or Randy Dykhuis, MLC Executive Director.
