Florida Ricans Arising is a movement of Puerto Ricans rising, leading, and creating meaningful impact across Florida. United by our shared heritage and deep commitment to community, we proudly call Central Florida home while carrying Puerto Rico in our hearts. With more than 1.5 million Puerto Ricans living in Florida, we are a vibrant and growing force—from Kissimmee and Orlando to Tampa and beyond. 
Our mission is to connect, empower, and amplify our collective voice through leadership, civic engagement, entrepreneurship, and cultural pride.  The name Florida Ricans Arising embodies a powerful message: Puerto Ricans in Florida are emerging, stepping into leadership, and shaping their own future. It reflects our resilience, our cultural pride, and our commitment to making a lasting and positive impact wherever we live, work, and serve.         

Rooted in Puerto Rico. Rising in Florida. Shaping the future together.
