Spirit of Giving

Boystown & MAC

During the morning of December 19th, our chapter’s Spirit of Giving initiative distributed toys and needed personal items to 50 unaccompanied migrant children ages 7-17 who are being housed in a church facility known as The Boys Town Center/Walsh Children’s Village.

In the afternoon, we continued our giving by distributing toys and needed personal items to children of migrant workers ages 5-18 living in a labor housing in Homestead, Florida. Gifts were distributed at the Mexican American Counsel Parent Center (MAC). Food cards and gift cards were given as well to the mariachi teachers, school administrators and profession musicians.

The FBI Miami CAAA felt completely humbled by the outpouring of volunteerism and support during our Spirit of Giving outreach, as we brought smiles and holiday cheer in our underserved communities.

Virtual Speaker's Series: Youth Programing goes Viral

This year the Miami Chapter altered its speaker's format to navigate this unfortunate pandemic. In lieu of our CAAA member’s only speaker's events, we decided to put our energy and emphasis of our speaker’s series into our school systems by facilitating virtual classroom talks and presentations.

Coral Reef Elementary - Miami-Dade County

What a huge success! The FBI Miami field office became our reading heroes. For two full weeks, up to 5 individuals each day (both Special Agents and Support Staff) took the time from their busy schedules to spend quality time reading to students from Pre-K to 5th grade.

Reaching 100's of Students

Agents and Support Staff read books to over 50 students per day in different classrooms. After each reading session, our guest readers shared with students and answered questions about what they do for the FBI Miami Division.

The FBI and Constitutional Law

Sophomore, Juniors, and Seniors took part in a 2-part Speaker's Series at Everglades High School in Broward County. Special Agent Maquire discussed many topics in Session 1 centering around computer fraud, homeland security and the concepts of law enforcement and court decisions based on what law enforcement can or cannot do.

Session 2 was a very informative discussion about career opportunities with the FBI and their need for diverse backgrounds in university studies.

FBI Miami CAAA Relief Efforts

FBI Miami agents work around the clock searching a landfill in Broward County, Florida with the hopes of finding answers as to what happened to Leila Cavett, a Georgia mother last seen July 25 at a Race trac gas station off Hollywood Blvd and State Road 7. The FBI Miami CAAA is collaborating along with other agencies to provide relief efforts for the agents working the site.
