Established in 2009, the Children’s Hero Award honors a community leader who has shown incredible foresight and leadership in providing services and access to those youth who have suffered child abuse and neglect in Miami-Dade. This year, Family Resource Center will recognize Miami-Dade College President Dr. Eduardo Padrón with the award for his work to bridge the educational gap for children aging out of the foster care system.
All proceeds generated from the evening will go towards providing over 1,000 newborns, toddlers, adolescents and teens with the shelter, food, medical and mental health care that they need due to experiencing abuse, neglect and abandonment by their parents.
