Issues of the day, affecting all Floridians, will be the focus of the forums. Initial forums will focus on three major topics:

EDUCATION: The future of Florida is deeply affected by decisions on Education. The forums will focus on quality education and the education system as relates to children, youth and young adults.

GROWTH: Quality of life at the community level is impacted heavily by the rapid pace of growth in Florida and growth-related decisions. The forums will include questions on growth and the environment.

GOVERNMENT: Governmental policies, structure and leaders siginificantly affect Floridians the day-to-day living of Floridians. Questions on this topic, and what it takes to have "good government" and the best governance, will be a part of the forums.
