Mission Statement
Our mission is to ensure the social and academic success of underserved and academically at-risk children and youth through cultural arts education, Living Values, academic support, and mentoring.
Description
Milagro Center was founded in 1997 to provide a home away from home for disadvantaged and academically at risk children and teens in the local Delray Beach community. Milagro, which means "miracle" in Spanish, motivates children and teens to "reach for the stars" while being confronted by the many adverse influences they face in the community. For the last 24 years, Milagro Center’s uniquely integrated programs have focused on empowering these economically-disadvantaged and academically at-risk youth and their families to succeed, both in school and in life, having a resounding positive influence on our Delray Beach, Florida community. Milagro Center carries out its mission by providing afterschool, summer camp, and ARTreach programs to disadvantaged and academically-at risk children and teens in grades K-12, right here in South Florida.
