The Florida Housing Coalition is proud to unveil the Summer 2025 issue of Blueprints, our newly rebranded journal guiding the future of affordable housing in Florida!

While the name and look are fresh, Blueprints continues the legacy of the Housing News Network Journal as the go-to resource for housing advocates, policymakers, nonprofits, and community leaders. This edition reflects not only where we are, but where we’re heading—building stronger, more resilient foundations for Florida’s housing future.
