Remembering Jaimie Ross, affordable housing advocate and former CEO of the Florida Housing Coalition. Jaimie passed away this week; she will be missed.
Share your thoughts and remembrances. https://lnkd.in/eFY43Rd2 It is with deep sadness that we send this news to all the Florida Housing Coalition’s members, partners, and affordable housing providers and advocates. Jaimie Ross passed away this week at her home in St. Pete. Beach. She sent a message of love to the Coalition, and we know that Jaimie built the road we travel on and the bridges we cross over to fulfill the promise of a safe and affordable home for all Floridians. Jaimie vaulted the Coalition’s annual Affordable Housing Conference into the largest and best state housing conference in the country. As we are meeting in just a few days in Orlando for the 38th conference, we will honor and celebrate the vision and legacy of Jaimie Ross.
