Welcome to the My Safe Florida Home Web site.
Our mission is to help Floridians learn how to harden their homes to better protect themselves and their families from windstorm damage. 
 
Thank you for your interest in the My Safe Florida Home program.

Due to budget constraints, the My Safe Florida Home program expired on June 30, 2009. 

If you have resources available, we encourage you to take steps to protect yourself and your property against hurricane damage. The first step is pursuing a wind inspection to identify how you can strengthen your home or determine if you are eligible for discounts on your wind insurance.

Florida CFO

Hurricane season is June 1 through November 30 - now is the time to prepare. Thankfully, Florida did not experience a major hurricane this past season. Click here to learn what you can do to help your home better withstand hurricane-force winds. 

Grant funds are not taxable income.  Following a request from the Department, the IRS ruled in November 2007 that grants awarded through the MSFH program are not considered taxable income and do not have to be reported as income to the federal government. Read more here.
 

Certification of Inspectors
Due to the expiration of the My Safe Florida Home program on June 30, 2009, we are no longer certifying wind inspectors. A list of inactive inspectors associated with the program has been provided
, along with the dates which they were active, to allow insurance companies to verify that the Uniform Mitigation Verification Inspection Forms (Form 1802) submitted by homeowners participating in the program were completed by qualified, certified inspectors. Click here for a complete list of inspectors associated with the My Safe Florida Home program.
 
Learn more about mitigation discounts.
If your home has undergone a wind inspection through the My Safe Florida Home program and you are potentially eligible for insurance discounts or credits, you will receive a mitigation form. This personalized form will tell your insurance company how your home may qualify for insurance discounts.  Please read more.
