Transforming Life
Empowering Individuals
You Thrive Florida is a mid-size nonprofit 501(c)(3) Community Action agency dedicated to creating the conditions for individuals, families, and communities to thrive through a comprehensive service delivery approach. Ongoing funding and resources are primarily obtained from “pass-through” grants originating at the federal and state levels. The agency also relies heavily on local donors, partners, in-kind contributions, fundraising activities, and volunteer support as a key strategy for long-term sustainability.
