Hope Florida Model School Districts

Hope Florida utilizes Hope Navigators to guide Floridians on an individualized path to prosperity, economic self-sufficiency, and hope by focusing on community collaboration between the private sector, faith-based community, nonprofits, and government entities to break down traditional community silos, in an effort to maximize resources and uncover opportunities.

Each Hope Florida Model School District has a dedicated school liaison in every school. These school liaisons provide Hope Florida information to parents and community members in addition to other resources.
