How can we work together to expand and preserve homeownership opportunities across Florida?
Join the Florida Housing Coalition and regional partners for an interactive discussion exploring the future of homeownership in your community. We'll examine regional homeownership data, opportunities to connect mortgage-ready renters with available resources, employer partnerships, strategies to overcome development and financing gaps, community land trusts, and approaches to preserving homeownership and generational wealth.
These gatherings will bring together leaders from housing, business, finance, government, and nonprofit sectors to identify challenges, share solutions, and build partnerships that can open more doors to sustainable homeownership.
Who Should Attend?
Participation is encouraged from across Florida's housing ecosystem, including local governments, housing finance agencies, lenders, real estate and development professionals, community land trusts, housing counselors, nonprofit organizations, employers, chambers of commerce, anchor institutions, philanthropic organizations, and other partners interested in advancing homeownership.
Registration is required, and seating is limited. Participants are encouraged to register early. We particularly welcome participation from business and employer partners, including organizations employing workers eligible for Florida's Hometown Heroes Housing Program.
