Legislative Session Missions
Legislative Session Missions
As the Florida Legislative Black Caucus, one of our Missions during the 2023 Legislative Session is to direct Millions of Resource Support Dollars and Policy Reforms to Distressed Communities throughout the entire State of Florida.
Statewide Scholarships:
The Florida Conference of Black State Legislators Foundation in partnership with the Florida Legislative Black Caucus offers financial support to eligible students statewide designated as "In Need Status" to assist them in completing their higher education goals. Annually, the Foundation host its Scholarship Gala Celebration raising funds through contributions from public and private partners. This premier event enables our organizations to award Scholarships to students. If not for their support, deserving students would not have an opportunity to continue their education. To our supporters we say, thank you.
Legislative Internships:
The Florida Conference of Black State Legislators (FCBSL) Foundation Legislative Scholar Internship Program offers College students including Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, an opportunity to engage with Florida State Senators and State Representatives in Tallahassee during Committee weeks and the Legislative Session. During the Internship, students will have an opportunity to observe the Legislators address issues pertaining to; Healthcare, Economic Development, Tourism, Education, Crime, Environmental Preservation, Telecommunications, , Transportation, Seniors, Veterans Affairs, and other issues of importance to the residents and citizens of the State of Florida.
Legislative Industry Workshops:
The Florida Legislative Black Caucus (FLBC) throughout the year meets with industry representatives to address various levels of concerns that impact Constituents statewide. This interaction is primarily the mechanism in which the FLBC develops proposals to address what is best to improve to conditions enabling communities to grow and have opportunities to enhance future generations. New Legislation is often generated as a result of this process and current Legislation is amended to meet the challenging times in which we live. We invite industry representatives to contact us to exchange ideas and initiatives. Developing relationships is a vital component of working together as we strive to make Florida the best state we call home.
