When families have access to the support they need, parents can work, businesses can retain talent, and communities can thrive.

That connection is at the heart of Built to Thrive, where business and community leaders will come together to explore practical ways employers can be part of the solution.

Join us November 9 & 10 in Orlando.

On our next Future Call, we’ll explore how United Way’s EDEN Place brings families and neighborhood partners together to nurture child development and help families thrive.

Tyler O’dneal, director of community impact at United Way Miami will highlight how EDEN Place delivers free, comprehensive services across Overtown, North Miami, and beyond. We’ll learn how their educational family resource centers combine parenting workshops, school advocacy, one-on-one coaching, and financial literacy under one roof to engage, empower, and strengthen local caregivers.

What can each of us contribute to creating meaningful change for Florida’s children?

We’re thrilled to welcome Dr. Myron Rolle as the keynote speaker for Built to Thrive Summit in Orlando on November 10.

A pediatric neurosurgeon at Nemours Children’s Hospital, Rhodes Scholar, former NFL player and community leader, Dr. Rolle has built his career across medicine, education, athletics and service.

His keynote, “It Takes a Team: The Power of Each of Us,” will set the tone for a day focused on collaboration, shared responsibility and action.

Because the challenges facing children and families don’t belong to one sector, and neither do the solutions, at Built to Thrive, leaders from across Florida will come together to share what’s working, tackle challenges together and help shape Florida’s early childhood agenda for 2027.

The first years of life are a critical time for brain development, learning, and lifelong health.

When children receive the support they need early, they have a stronger foundation for success in school and in life.

That’s why healthcare professionals are joining the All In for Early Learning movement.

Together, we can help every child get the strongest possible start.
