Special Olympics Florida – Miami-Dade County is part of a global movement that uses the power of sport to build a world where people with intellectual disabilities are valued, included, and set up to succeed.
We provide year-round sports training and competition to over 90,000 athletes statewide in a wide range of Olympic-type sports at no cost to athletes. But our programs go well beyond the field:
Right here in Miami-Dade, we serve our community through a network of athletes, coaches, volunteers, and Unified partners.
Here’s a look at who we are by the numbers:
We embrace inclusive practices and provide equal access to opportunities for athletic participation, employment, advancement, and volunteering. Your support on Give Miami Day helps us expand our reach and impact even more lives across our community.
