Fighting for our ALICE community

Our advocacy on behalf of ALICE families continues as we urge our Florida legislature to expand tax and financial education programs for working families, increase funding for quality early education programs and provide additional health care services for Florida’s children and older adults.

"We were so grateful this Thanksgiving. Because of this drive, my family had a Thanksgiving dinner and so did many other families. It meant so much that United Way put this together. I am always grateful for the family engagement at my center because they provide so many resources and this drive is just that- something so many people could benefit from." – Silvana, United Way Thanksgiving Drive Beneficiary
