Our Mission:
Support.
We are a multidimensional youth-support program. Our mission is to measurably improve the lives of Miami-Dade public school students through engagement with academic, sports and business leaders.
Our Impact
We at The Home Team intend to create an inclusive and affirming environment that assists in the development of the youth as both students and athletes in the greater Miami area. Through our coaching and mentoring program, we believe that this development will not only further the students’ academic and athletic success but also strengthen their social skills on a personal and community level.

Volunteer
Our main objective for each volunteer is to be a resource by taking on the role of a tutor, mentor and coach. Your strongest skills will be used on a regular basis to enhance the life of a child.
Our Programs
We identified the current need for an organization to provide a structured, school-based program to supplement students’ public education experiences in Miami-Dade. We use qualitative evidence, collected through feedback from community stakeholders including teachers, school administrators and students, direct observation of current after-school programming, and an analysis of best practices found in other communities and programs. We learned that students had limited experience with community members representing activities that increase children’s opportunities for success: accomplished academic leaders, talented sports representatives and successful business people.
