Through their funding and community building efforts, Florida’s local United Ways are an integral part of Florida’s education and human service systems.  Focusing on education, income, health, and other safety net issues they are engaged in myriad ways to improve the quality of life for everyone in their communities and across the Sunshine State.  The United Way of Florida represents the interests of Florida’s United Ways on legislative and regulatory issues relating to education, income, and health, and also on general issues impacting the nonprofit community and related to disaster preparation, recovery, and response.

The United Way of Florida also works in concert with United Way Worldwide on issues of importance to United Ways, the communities we serve and other nonprofits.  Visit the United Way Worldwide website to review their public policy positions for the 116th Congress.
