Background of Item:

community wealth. The group identified two key areas of opportunity: supplier diversity
and workforce development. By early 2019 leaders from Health Foundation of South
Florida, the SFAA's backbone organization that operates all of its activities, began
reaching out to anchor institutions. Within a few months, workgroups for each Miami -
Dade and Broward counties were established and began meeting. These meetings
were attended by anchor staff members and leaders, who could provide invaluable
institutional knowledge about strategic areas of opportunity and collaboration.

of Human Services and the Department of Procurement have been actively participating
in the SFAA meetings to create a SFAA Strategic Blueprint with the goal to build a

efforts to increase opportunities for local, small and minority-owned businesses;

development efforts for local minority residents; and sharing best practices among
