Are you ready to turn your passion into action? The Lee County Homeless Coalition's Legislative Advocacy Committee is a dedicated group of individuals working to stay informed about policies that impact the homeless community. We are currently focused on House Bill 1365, a law that has significant implications for how our state addresses homelessness and housing issues.   Joining our committee gives you the opportunity to research legislation, engage with elected officials, and advocate for more compassionate and effective solutions. Use your voice to make a tangible difference and help shape a more just future for all.   Meetings are monthly; students are encouraged to research policies related to homelessness and housing to share with the committee and then share out to the larger COC meeting.   Schedule is flexible and research can be done independently.   To learn more and get involved, contact Dr. Antoinette Kruse at hello@pflc.info or attend our next meeting (hybrid) on August 21, 2025 from 8:30am-10am at Centerstone 4350 Fowler St, Fort Myers, FL 33901 or join virtually via this link: https://leehomeless.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=dcc971a9e4f2c09d939714cb6&id=9511690953&e=5c5067aa8d   Students who complete this event gain skills in Critical Thinking/Problem Solving, Oral/Written Communications, Leadership   This aligns with the following Sustainable Development Goals: No Poverty (1), Zero Hunger (2), Decent Work and Economic Growth (8), Reduced Inequalities (10)

Credit cards and debit cards look almost identical on the outside. But there are some key differences between these two pieces of plastic. Depending on the situation, it may be better to use a credit card versus a debit card. No matter which card is used, it’s always a good idea to make sure they are used responsibly. At this table, we will break down credit card facts using trivia questions and sort out the differences between credit and debit cards to help students edit their credit!
