What Florida Immigrant Coalition does

Florida Immigrant Coalition (FLIC) is a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, member-driven statewide coalition founded in 1998 and formally incorporated in 2004, headquartered in Miami-Dade County with staff and operations in six Florida counties (Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Osceola, and Duval in addition to Miami-Dade). The organization is governed by 83 member organizations and over 100 allies spanning grassroots community groups, farmworker associations, youth organizations, legal advocates, unions, and faith communities, with direction set through an Annual FLIC Congress and a member-elected Board of Directors. FLIC delivers a portfolio of free, multilingual (English, Spanish, Kreyol, French, German, Japanese, Italian, Portuguese) legal and educational services to Florida's immigrant population, including citizenship application clinics, Temporary Protected Status (TPS) registration and re-registration, Parole-in-Place / Keeping Families Together support, Employment Authorization Document (Form I-765) assistance, Know Your Rights education, Family Preparedness planning, and detention defense referrals at Krome, Broward Transitional Center, and Glades County Jail.

The technology layer supporting these services is composed entirely of third-party, undifferentiated SaaS rather than any proprietary platform. EveryAction serves as the CRM, donation processor, newsletter, and petition engine; Citizenshipworks provides the self-service online citizenship application portal; Zoom hosts virtual clinics and volunteer trainings; and Google Drive hosts Know Your Rights resources. A free hotline (1-888-600-5762) and the FLICopedia Zendesk-based knowledge hub provide individual-level intake and self-service. The organization runs no proprietary AI/ML systems, holds no patents, and discloses no data flywheels or training pipelines.

FLIC's business model is mission-driven and non-commercial. All direct services to immigrants are provided free of charge, subsidized by pro-bono attorneys, volunteers, and member organizations. Revenue derives from individual and organizational donations processed through EveryAction, modest individual membership dues ($10/month or $40/year) and organizational membership dues set by the Board, and presumably foundation grants (not disclosed). The organization is explicitly non-partisan and non-political in its self-description, though it actively runs advocacy campaigns on legislation such as SB 1718, asylum policy, climate migration, and Haiti support. GTM is community-led and event-driven: 165 events are listed on the website, with distribution through in-person clinics, virtual events, earned media (Miami Herald, Newsweek, USA Today), and a multilingual social presence on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.
