Advocacy in Action
In a powerful demonstration of commitment, Danielle Dubuc, Executive Director of FCC USA, recently took to the forefront in advocating for increased funding for after-school programs in Dade County. With a clear focus on fostering intentional, engaging, and accessible opportunities for the children and youth of our community, Danielle passionately championed the cause, leveraging the transformative influence of soccer to drive social impact.
At FCC USA, we firmly believe that after-school programs serve as a cornerstone for youth development, offering a platform where Movement, Mental Health, and Mentorship intersect to nurture holistic growth.
Movement: Through dynamic activities like soccer, after-school programs promote physical fitness, teamwork, and healthy habits, empowering youth to lead active lifestyles and build essential life skills.
Mental Health: Recognizing the importance of mental well-being, our programs provide a supportive environment where youth can openly address their emotions, develop resilience, and access resources to support their mental health journey.
Mentorship: Positive role models play a pivotal role in shaping the aspirations and trajectories of young individuals. Through mentorship opportunities, we connect youth with caring adults who offer guidance, encouragement, and invaluable life lessons.
Danielle's advocacy efforts in Tallahassee underscore our unwavering dedication to ensuring that every child in Dade County has equitable access to enriching after-school experiences. Her interactions with legislators and community leaders reflect our collective commitment to amplifying the voices of the youth we serve.
We extend our heartfelt appreciation to all who tirelessly advocate for causes that uplift our community. Your dedication to listening, understanding, and supporting various initiatives is instrumental in effecting positive change.
Together, let us continue to champion the importance of after-school programs in empowering the next generation of leaders, athletes, and changemakers in Dade County and beyond.
