Amigos for Kids
Since 1991, Amigos for kids have been preventing child abuse by valuing children, strengthening families, and educating communities.
In 1991, a few friends who had been volunteering at various child welfare organizations were asked by the Children’s Home Society (CHS) to volunteer for an auxiliary group to help the organization rally support for its mission from the burgeoning Hispanic community in South Florida. The group was named Amigos of CHS and was co-founded by Jorge A. Plasencia.
