We’ll also shine a spotlight on positive initiatives, events, and opportunities that inspire and support the next generation of car enthusiasts and young leaders across Florida.
In recent years, Tampa has witnessed a significant rise in youth homelessness. According to the Florida Council on Homelessness, the stage reported approximately 30,809 homeless individuals on a single night in January 2023, reflecting a 19.1% increase from the previous year. While specific numbers for Tampa’s youth are not detailed, the overall trend indicates a pressing issue.
