Empowering Florida's
Students
No one is immune to adversity and hardship. But with strong skills and a community of encouragement, we can persevere.
Florida’s First Lady Casey DeSantis is inspiring and leading the nation to empower students to overcome challenges. The state of Florida has developed education standards and curriculum that aim to equip students with skills that strengthen resiliency.
“In Florida, we are empowering students to have hope,” said First Lady Casey DeSantis. “No problem is insurmountable — all you need is a little help to become resilient.”
