The Strategic Advisory Group is made up of 17 individuals with representatives from the target public housing residents, the broader community, community-based organizations, and city officials. The group will meet periodically throughout the planning process to provide input and oversight to Lift Orlando and OHA on the development of the Transformation Plan.

These meetings are open for all who would like to observe, and we will reserve 30 minutes at the end of the agenda for visitors to make comments. If you would like to attend, please email natalie@liftorlando.org to RSVP so we can make sure to have a chair for you.

Would you like to get more involved in the planning process? We will have three working groups beginning soon:

• People,

• Neighborhood, and

• Housing

Join us to learn more about each group and figure out which one you'd like to be a part of!
