Fortify, across Florida
Equipping Florida associations to resource their churches in abuse prevention and response.
The Fortify Initiative is an abuse prevention and response training model for Southern Baptist local associations and state/regional conventions. The Florida Baptist Conference of Associational Leaders has partnered with the SBC Executive Committee to make Fortify trainings accessible across the state of Florida.
