Based in Tallahassee, Florida, the body operates as a key component of state governance and maintains a sizeable staff. The chamber participates in creating state laws and shaping public policy for Florida residents. In February 2024, House Speaker Paul Renner was recognized with the FEPA Legislative Achievement Award for leadership in emergency management, particularly in hurricane recovery and resilience efforts.
