MIAMI
Safe Families of Miami
Since September 2020 as part of the statewide effort, the Miami Chapter has started to mobilize churches in Miami-Dade County to join the movement to keep children safe, families together, and communities transformed. The Church volunteers are ordinary people with a compassionate heart who give of their time, skills, and resources to the parents and children they walk alongside. They become the extended family support for a family in crisis and help them find stability and thrive.
