The Florida Senior Home Ownership Protection Program plans to serve 570 low-income seniors by providing them with legal services that will help them preserve their homes in Hillsborough, Pasco, Manatee, Pinellas, Sarasota, and Orange counties. If no resources are available, the client will receive advice or brief services through centralized telephone intake. Through its efforts of expanding statewide, and ultimately increasing advocacy and representation for low-income seniors, FL SHOPP is helping to maintain safe and affordable housings for seniors who cannot otherwise afford the rising cost of rent. Overall, senior homeownership is in Florida’s best interest as it stabilizes families, reduces the strain on social services, and increases economic development within communities.
