Welcome! Glad you came by . . .Hi, Im Tina Dupree, Director of FloridaChild! And those empty chairs at my kitchen table are for you! Im here to help parents who want the best education they can get for their children.
FloridaChild wants more Florida families to have the opportunity to decide how their children will be educated, from their earliest years to when they are on their own. We believe it is the right thing to do for the children and families and the wise thing to do for the Florida taxpayers.
Who will teach your children should be decided at your kitchen table. FloridaChild believes that and we are going to help make it the reality for more Florida families. So pull up a chair at my kitchen table and make yourself comfortable.
