Join IREC supporters protecting progress.IREC counts on public and private funds to produce the success stories we’ve been at the forefront of since 1982. As some of our historical financial support from federal agencies is sunsetting, we must engage new partners and rely more than ever on non- governmental support.

“We support IREC because we recognize

the value of its critically important work.

IREC’s unique programs and resources

would be at risk without our help, and that

isn’t good for consumers or our industry.”
