"After witnessing the horrible conditions that families in Immokalee are living in, the vision of the Immokalee Fair Housing Alliance really resonates with me and I'm honored to be involved," says Jarrett. "With each building going up, we are not only giving families of Immokalee access to secure, affordable, hurricane-resistant housing, but we are also providing resources for healthcare, education and financial stability to give them continued support for their future."
The Immokalee Fair Housing Alliance recently celebrated the grand opening of the first of eight buildings at its new affordable apartment community in Immokalee, which will provide low-income families with safe, secure living environments for their families to flourish. Once complete, the community will feature eight apartment buildings and 128 units built to withstand a Category 5 hurricane, along with a community center, after-school programs, health care assistance and more.

The IFHA vision is for these families to have access to secure, affordable, hurricane-resistant rental housing, which will strengthen the community by fostering health, education, dignity and financial stability. The organization has embarked on a project to create community awareness and raise funds for a 128-rental unit complex in Immokalee. For more information, please visit ImmokaleeFairHousing.org.
