Postcards for tenants were created and distributed to resource group members (service providers throughout the state) for the soft launch.

A survey was sent to the resource group members for feedback. I would like to thank those who responded to the survey. Your comments were helpful and appreciated.

A housing locator demonstration was included with the Florida Housing exhibit during the Florida Homeless Coalition Conference (Aug 21st-23rd)

Miami-Dade County is undergoing contract negotiations with Socialserve to provide registration access to all affordable housing property owners in Miami-Dade County.

The Homeless Coalition of Hillsborough County is moving forward with its marketing efforts to encourage registration in that county.

The public launch took place at the Florida Housing Coalition Conference (Sept 5th – Sept 7th).

Web site presentation was conducted at the Florida Association of Information and Referral Specialists (FLAIRS) Annual Conference as a promotion activity.

Representatives from the Dept of Children and Families, Dept of Elder Affairs, and the Agency for Persons with Disabilities have offered to include the link on their websites.

An article about the housing locator was included in the Florida Housing Newsletter for August.

There is a link called “Want to Get Involved” on the housing locator website that provides information to local governments and organizations that are interested in providing registration access to their communities.
