Who We Are
This year the Florida Forensic Institute, one of America's oldest and most successful summer speech and debate institutes, is celebrating its 18th anniversary.  We are often asked how we have, year after year, maintained our high level of achievement.  The answer is in these, our guiding principles:
  • An outstanding, safe environment encourages the development of professional and personal growth and integrity.
  • Provide expert educators who can recognize the individual needs of each student.
  • To reach their potential, students must be taught as individuals.
  • Balance freedom with responsibility and accountability.
  • Advance the pursuit of excellence.
  • Teach skills for life.
Not all summer forensic institutes are created equal, and at FFI we continue to prove it!

Meet the 2010 FFI Dorm Mom!
At the Florida Forensic Institute, the safety and wellbeing of or students is our top priority.  Therefore, we have taken a different approach to security than most summer programs.  Our campus is staffed with security personnel, and the residential facility has security staff 24 hours-a-day.  Outside of class, students are supervised by degreed senior staff, rather than college-age junior staff.  An integral part of our security and safety initiative is our Dorm Mom, Kristi Taylor.  Click here for more information about Ms. Taylor.
