Hermanos de la Calle
Hermanos de la Calle (HDLC) is a grassroots nonprofit organization founded in Miami ten years ago. What began as a small group of families offering warm meals and conversations to homeless individuals in downtown Miami and Overtown has evolved into a robust organization. With love and compassion HDLC serves hundreds of homeless individuals today, connecting them with resources across Miami to help them rebuild their lives. From family reunification and shelter to housing opportunities and treatment programs, HDLC is a guiding hand for Miami’s homeless community.
