With Major Miami and Florida Milestones

September 2025 | News

Miami-based Carmona Advisors, a women-owned boutique government relations firm, is marking its six-month anniversary with measurable impact across South Florida and beyond. Since its founding earlier this year by veteran strategist Jacqui Carmona, the firm has advised on projects shaping housing, healthcare, transportation, and workforce development in Miami-Dade and across Florida.

The launch of Carmona Advisors was first covered by Florida Politics, with leaders across Miami-Dade praising Jacqui Carmona’s commitment and leadership. Mayor Daniella Levine Cava described her as a “home-grown leader who deeply cares about community” and someone whose “commitment to improving our community is evident in every project she takes on.”

County Commission Chairman Anthony Rodriguez also voiced strong support for the launch of Carmona Advisors, recognizing the firm’s role in advancing projects that bring real impact to Miami-Dade. His comments underscore the broad confidence in Carmona Advisors’ ability to navigate complex policy issues and deliver results for the community.

 Since that debut, the firm has been involved in several milestone initiatives:

Healthcare Transition in Miami-Dade: For the first time in nearly 30 years, the County Commission voted to change its healthcare administrator—a move expected to save Miami-Dade $40 million annually. This is a huge win for the employees and residents of Miami Dade County. Miami Herald coverage »

Housing and Development: Carmona Advisors continues to work with developers and policymakers to advance workforce housing solutions under Florida’s Live Local Act, designed to expand affordable options for working families.

Sports Performance Hub in Homestead: VSGS will invest about $275 million in the project, which is expected to bring extensive public benefits at no cost to city taxpayers. Plans include a 10,000-seat stadium, a sports academy, and expanded recreational amenities such as new tennis courts, multi-use athletic fields, basketball and pickleball courts, and renovated baseball fields.

The stadium is envisioned to host professional sports and major community events, including the Homestead Championship Rodeo. The Sports Performance Hub Miami will position Homestead as an international destination for elite sports training and education and bring top athletes to South Florida. Florida Politics coverage »
