#Knowledge – State of Florida Agencies’ Social Media Sites (Pt. 1)

This is the first of  a series of posts dedicated to providing Florida Residents, Researchers, Lobbyists, Marketing/PR reps and/or the just plain curious with a concise list of State of Florida Agencies’ Social Media sites.

Two of the main goals of a social media are engagement and transparency. Unfortunately, those goals are sometimes thwarted at the state government level. State governments are not known for their early adoption of new/innovative tools, especially not social media.

The good news is there are State of Florida agencies that have social media; the not so good news is that there is no one page or site that conveniently lists all their social media sites.
