TITLE XXX SOCIAL WELFARE
Chapter 409 Social and Economic Assistance
409.502 Legislative intent.
409.502 Legislative intent.--
(1) The Legislature finds and declares that great numbers of Florida citizens are denied adequate opportunities to become self-sufficient because local communities, given the scope and magnitude of community problems, do not possess the ability to generate enough revenue to carry out effective programs designed to develop human resources. The Legislature also recognizes local governments as vital partners in the effort to help all citizens achieve self-fulfillment and that local government must be capable of meeting the needs of its community.
(2) It is the purpose of ss. 409.501-409.505 to facilitate and assist local governing authorities in the development, establishment, and administration of community service programs to meet the unmet needs of their citizens in essential and necessary human resource development programs and activities.
History.--s. 1, ch. 74-166.
