FL06 Stories and Data

The NMTC supported a new 5-story 29,284 sq. ft. expansion to an existing building in the Little Havana neighborhood of Miami, FL. The project is the final pillar to the existing 144,000 sq. ft. campus focused on empowering low-income visually impaired individuals. The Lighthouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired takes a multifaceted educational approach to serving students who are blind. Their school, which contains pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, first and second grades, is one component within the Miami Lighthouse’s Children’s Programs. Other Children’s Programs include Early Intervention for Blind Babies and services for elementary and middle school children during the summer, school holidays and Saturdays.
