From the President

Greetings everyone,

The FMO Board of Directors and I are beginning to realize the progress from implementation of our Five Year Growth Plan adopted by the State Assembly in 2017.  Our progress has been slower than expected due to other matters requiring our attention and efforts. Two of the principles of our plan are education and inclusion.  Inclusion is the establishment and reporting of committees with a wide breath of volunteers from around the state. 

We now have at least four staffed committees meeting regularly, two more in the formation process plus a nominating committee seeking candidates for officers at our Assembly. The positions to be elected are President, Vice President and (3) Directors at Large. 

Our Education committee is reviewing ways to add new training opportunities and improve our delivery methods for training.

We continue to develop and seek partnerships with other organizations whose goals may overlap with FMO.  In June we met with The Housing Coalition and AARP Florida.  We look forward to finding ways to support each other’s mission. We remain vigilant in monitoring our marketplace and offer support or opposition when the situation requires our actions.

Please contact your District President or our Executive Director Jane Clapp at [email protected] with your desire to volunteer or be a candidate for office. Remember YOUR participation is the best way to have your voice heard.

Jerry Durham
President
