The Florida Faith-based and Community-based Advisory Council serves as a formal policy council to the Executive Office of the Governor and to the Legislature. The work of the Council is administered by the Governor’s Volunteer Florida Foundation.
The goals of the Council are to enlist, enable, empower and expand the work of volunteer faith-based and community-based organizations. The Council is tasked
with providing annual recommendations to the Governor and Legislature that will encourage the government and the faith-based community to work together to improve social services for Floridians.
“Community-based and faith-based organizations in Florida have tremendous capacity to meet the needs of our citizens. It is common sense to help these organizations coordinate with government so that both can maximize their resources,” said the sponsor of authorizing legislation for the Council, Representative Dean Cannon, Winter Park.
