Welcome to Our Miami Chapter Page!

In 2003, the Safe Families for Children movement began in Chicago. Our goal then and now is to engage families via faith communities to open their homes to care for vulnerable children. Since then, we’ve had nearly 7,000 children placed into 1,400 Host Family homes. We currently have more than 1,000 Host Families opening their homes to more than 1,000 children each year. Seventy-five percent of children placed are under the age of 6 years old. Over 90% of the kids return to their parents or a relative that is identified to take over.

We are also referred to by our local police, hospitals, schools, agencies, and parents themselves.

El movimiento Safe Families for Children comenzó en Chicago en el año 2003. Nuestro objetivo entonces y ahora es involucrar a las familias de comunidades religiosas para que abran sus hogares con el propósito de cuidar de los niños vulnerables. Desde entonces, hemos colocado casi 7,000 niños en 1,400 hogares de Familias de Asilo. Actualmente tenemos más de 1,000 Familias de Asilo que abren sus hogares a más de 1,000 niños cada año. El setenta y cinco por ciento de los niños colocados son menores de 6 años. Más del 90% de los niños regresan con sus padres o un familiar que se identifica para hacerse cargo.

También somos referidos por nuestra policía local, hospitales, escuelas, agencias, y los mismos padres.
