Celebrating 45 Years of Impact! ?? Legislative Training - April 7-9, 1999 ?? In 1999, FL Impact held a transformative two-day training in Tallahassee with members of the Florida Coalition for the Homeless and Impact board organizations. Fifty-three participants delved into the budget process, discussed bills impacting low-income individuals, and monitored legislative sessions. Highlights included a news conference with Florida’s bishops and religious leaders on title loan reform and a private meeting with Governor Jeb Bush, where a farm worker leader appealed for assistance for displaced farm workers around Lake Apopka. Another farm worker group advocated for legislation on the harvesting of the saw palmetto berry, crucial to their livelihoods. We appreciate where we've come from and where we're going.
