Welcome to the Florida Action Committee

To our members and fellow advocates, Happy 2017!

To people finding us for the first time; welcome to FAC.

The Florida Action Committee is a not-for-profit public safety advocacy group whose mission is to reform the State of Florida’s sex offender laws and policies. To find out more, click here.

If you found us by searching online, through a referral from a fellow registrant or from one of our fliers, we are glad to have you join us. We know how important it is for registered individuals to have a support system and a group they can turn to for information and referrals. We are that group.

We also know how difficult it is to navigate the maze of confusing and constantly changing laws and to re-integrate into society, when it’s hard enough finding a job or place to live. As a member-driven organization, our objective is to unify those who are similarly situated in order to effectuate change. We may not individually have the means to lobby the legislature or bring lawsuits, but collectively we can.

Through Unity Comes Change!

Please take a moment to read through some of the articles on our site, navigate some of the links to find out more about our committees, access our library of research and referrals and reach out to us if you are interested in volunteering.

If you are familiar with us, we hope 2017 will be the year you get involved. If you are new to FAC, we hope that you’ve found a place of comfort, support, help and resources to help you get back to a productive, meaningful life!

    Would like to see something done that allows sex offenders find affordable housing without simply being rejected due to a past conviction – My conviction was 1980 with no offenses sense. I was still forced to move from an adult mobile home park when they were advised of the conviction.

        My husbands conviction was 1980 also. Also we moved from Florida in 2005, and y husband is still on Florida’s list, plus he has to be on Louisiana’s registry till 2021. Although in Louisiania they have a 10 year early release from the registry, lawyers tell us my husband isn’t eligible because of Florida.
