The goal of Parent to Parent of Miami's Journey of Dreams Benefit is to honor individuals in our community who are dedicated to improving and promoting initiatives that benefit children and adults with disabilities and their families. Individuals are honored in the categories of Community Leadership, Education Leadership, and Excellence in Family Advocacy.
The annual Journey of Dreams Benefit is our major fundraiser to generate funds to provide much needed help, hope and support for children with disabilities and their families. We are committed to providing the information, training, support and advocacy that these families need to deal with the challenges of raising a child with special needs. We want to make sure that our organization continues fulfilling its mission by offering these crucial services at no-cost to all children with disabilities and their families in our community.
