Center for Family and Child Enrichment

The Center for Family and Child Enrichment is a private, nonprofit, community-based organization founded in 1977 that serves children and families throughout Miami-Dade County. The organization serves children who have been abused, neglected and/or abandoned; children with severe emotional disturbances in need of mental health care; and children in custody of parents or relatives who are chronic runaways or ungovernable. Services include individual and family therapy, domestic violence group therapy, substance abuse treatment, psychiatric services, and targeted case management. The organization also operates the Pediatric & Family Health and Wellness Center, a Federally Qualified Health Center in Miami Gardens that offers general and sick care for adults and children, OB/GYN, dental services, nutrition programs, and preventive services. Additional programs include community-based youth intervention for families whose youth exhibit risk factors for involvement in juvenile delinquency or dependency systems, and the Sexual Health Awareness and Prevention Program focused on HIV education, testing, and prevention.
