The mission of the Sandra DeLucca Developmental Center is to provide persons with intellectual and physical challenges equal access to community-based recreational, leisure, and cultural activities and to enhance their quality of life and inspire confidence, self-esteem and foster independence. Among the programs available are A.D.T. Adult Day Training Program,GET FIT AND SUMMER CAMP, MAGIC Miami's Accessible Guide to Inclusion in Our Community, and Project SEARCH Miami.

Also, the disabilities division holds many special events each calendar year, most are open to everyone in the disabled community and the average attendance is over two hundred persons. These events provide our clients and other guest with social opportunities not otherwise available. Each event is special for the client and is themed to cover holiday celebrations, dance, sports, and cultural events.

Our annual fundraiser is a Golf Tournament held at the International Links Melreese Golf Course. This event provides a way for community leaders and supporters of the disabilities division to gather and raise money for a worthy cause. Funds raised are used to purchase most needed equipment, supplies and fund programs at our division and in other park locations.
