ISSUES
Ensuring that All Voices are Heard
Faith in Florida believes the best antidote to systemic racial inequities and poverty is to empower the people who are most impacted and equip them for public and social justice leadership.
VOTER SUPPRESSION
It is with the value that every member of our community’s voice matters that we have long engaged in work to protect democracy and end voter suppression. #RaiseYourVoice
GUN VIOLENCE
Every year, an average of 981 people in Florida die by gun homicides and 1,757 are wounded by gun assaults—a rate of 5.2 homicides and 8.4 assaults per 100,000 people. Florida has the 28th-highest rate of gun homicides and gun assaults in the US. In Florida, 75% of all homicides involve a gun, compared to 75% nationwide.
IMMIGRATION
Faith in Florida believes that the immigrant experience is a universal American story. As we build strong communities and a strong nation, we need to ensure that new Americans are welcomed and not exploited.
MASS INCARCERATION
Our goal is to leverage clergy’s role as community leaders to have hard conversations with law enforcement that allows Faith in Florida to build a bridge between police and the community about public safety.
YOUTH
Real, impactful change can never happen if our "Youth" aren't involved and invited to the table. Our work quickly fades with time without our fearless youth, and Faith in Florida will continue to stand alongside them and their voices.
