This Northeast Florida city will be the kick-off for the Florida Funder tour which will begin with an overview of the state’s immigrant and refugee populations. Jacksonville has a unique immigrant population. It is a resettlement city with refugees from different countries including Cuba, Bhutan, Eastern Europe and Iraq. Along with a large Latino population, Asians are the area's largest ethnic group, comprising approximately 40% of the foreign-born population. In Jacksonville, we will visit with local service providers and hear from funders investing in this space to explore a variety of topics including workforce development, housing, education and other integration efforts. Robust discussion and peer networking will round out our time in Jacksonville.
