PEACE AND PROSPERITY PLAN FY 25-26

Safety and Health Committee · 2026-04-13 · resolution

Miami-Dade County's Board of County Commissioners is considering the Peace and Prosperity Plan for Fiscal Year 2025-26, with a total budget of $2,888,942.00. The plan aims to combat gun violence and promote economic prosperity, with a focus on youth intervention and reentry programs. Key components include the Fit2Lead program, MDSO Turn Around Police Academy (TAP), MDSO Youth Outreach Unit (YOU) and Youth Athletic and Mentoring Initiative (YAMI), and the Safe in the 305 Grants Program. The plan allocates $2,800,000.00 from the Anti-Gun Violence and Prosperity Initiatives Trust Fund, supplemented by $88,942.00 in carryover funds from previous fiscal years. The resolution authorizes the County Mayor or designee to expend funds, select organizations for sub-grants and program evaluation, and apply for additional grant funds. The allocation of Fit2Lead program slots and funding will be based on firearm homicide data, juvenile arrests, and civil citation data. The Safety and Health Committee has deferred this item multiple times, with the latest action being an amendment on April 13, 2026.
