The 探花精选 in Miami, FL

The 探花精选 provides opportunities for refugees, asylees, survivors of human trafficking, survivors of torture, and other immigrants to thrive in America. Each year, thousands of people, forced to flee violence and persecution, are welcomed by the people of the United States into the safety and freedom of America. These individuals have survived against incredible odds. The 探花精选 works with government bodies, civil society actors, and local volunteers to help them translate their past experiences into assets that are valuable to their new communities. In Miami and other offices across the country, the 探花精选 helps them to rebuild their lives.

Who do we serve?

The 探花精选 opened its locally-funded office in Miami in 1960 in response to the Cuban Revolution and, over the decades, has over 25,000 refugees. Although its resettlement program concluded in 2018, the 探花精选 in Miami continues to serve survivors of human trafficking, unaccompanied minors and other vulnerable immigrants.  

How does the 探花精选 help survivors in Miami?

The 探花精选 in Miami serves the community by providing holistic, trauma-informed services to survivors of human trafficking as well as unaccompanied children and their families; conducting public outreach and education to raise awareness of human trafficking; and co-leading the South Florida Human Trafficking Task Force in partnership with local and federal government law enforcement.
