ONE MORE CHILD
Miami, the second-largest city in Florida, is located in the Southeast of the Sunshine state with a population of more than 460,000. This area is highly developed with hotels, restaurants, shopping plazas and attractions while bounded by two national parks – the Everglades and Biscayne.
However, there are many challenges like the lack of affordable housing, mental health concerns and drug use. In Miami-Dade County, 52% of the population lacks basic prose literacy skills and more than 10% of students don’t finish high school. Around 270,000 people face food insecurity in the Miami-Dade area while 1 out of 4 residents of Miami lives in poverty. Our Miami campus serves many communities across South Florida.
