ADARE Partners

The five charter states in the ADARE project alliance were Florida, Georgia, Maryland, Missouri, and Texas. Illinois joined the research team in 1999. Washington became the seventh state partner in 2002. California and Ohio became the eighth and ninth state partners in 2004.

The legal and working relationship of state administrative record owners and researchers differs among the nine current ADARE project states.
