you? In today's uncertain times, Florida's most vulnerable families are teetering on the edge of disaster. Revenue losses and a slowing economy are leaving The Sunshine State's most vulnerable citizens in the dark. Our children, the elderly, and those with special needs were hit hard by budget cuts in 2008 - and deeper cuts could be coming in 2009. There ARE alternatives to simply slashing what remains of our families' safety net. But to protect Florida's quality of life, business climate and those most vulnerable, Florida's leaders must consider new ideas. Now, a broad coalition of respected groups - representing children,

elders, taxpayers, and others - is demanding that Florida's elected officials find fresh, wise, and cost-effective solutions.
