There are more than 1.2 million children in Florida – nearly 30 percent of all children – who are part of a low-income working family (U.S. Census Bureau, 2015 ). And according to research, it would take 2.6 full-time jobs at minimum wage for a family to afford a two-bedroom unit at fair market rent (“The State of America’s Children”, Children’s Defense Fund, 2017). These are the situations we are swiftly running to with strategic solutions.
