On behalf of all our community human service provider organizations, our deepest sympathy to @Kathleen4SWFL. We are praying for you and your family.

We wholeheartedly agree with the words of Sen. Brodeur, sponsor of SB 1758, who said, “Everyone deserves a chance to live healthy, and for our fellow Floridians with disabilities that means living independently, at home in our communities, for as long as they possibly can.” 💖

Women’s History Month is a beautiful celebration of all that women have contributed to society in countless ways. Many women with disabilities have left a positive mark on the world. We applaud and appreciate you and the inspiration you provide for girls & young women everywhere!

We're proud of our very own President & CEO @tylersununu for participating in @LtGovNunez's inaugural Race for Our Heroes 5K benefitting the Florida Veterans Foundation. A great day for family, fitness, and a wonderful cause!

Thank you @LtGovNunez for hosting this event. My kids and I had a blast running with everyone and supporting a great cause.

The highlight of session - Tonight, I had the honor of presenting my friend JJ Holmes with the Idelio Valdes Leadership and Advocacy Award, Florida's top honor recognizing an individual with a developmental disability. JJ is a hero to me and to so many others across our state. ❤️

We had a great time advocating at the Capital this week during our member fly-in . It was made even better thanks to the historic investment for individuals living with intellectual and developmental disabilities in @Kathleen4SWFL's "Live Healthy" Initiative. Thank you!

[Florida Association of Rehabilitation Facilities @floridaarf]

We applaud Governor DeSantis for recommending a budget that includes a historic investment into services for Floridians with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We are especially pleased with the recommended rate increases to those who provide these vital services.

Florida ARF had a great Legislative Fly-In this week. Thank you to all of our members who came out to make your voices heard and the many Legislators who took the time to meet with us and listen to our stories.
