What if the biggest impact happens before a family ever reaches a breaking point?

In this conversation, Michael Nathanson sits down with Dennis Miles, Executive Director, and Vincent D'Aria Palm Beach Advisory Board Chair of Children’s Home Society of Florida, to talk about the real work happening behind the scenes to support children and families across Palm Beach, Broward, and the Treasure Coast.

They break down what the organization actually does beyond what most people assume from the name. From preventing child abuse before it starts, to creating community hubs and family resource centers, to building a cradle to career model through community partnership schools, this conversation highlights how early support can change the entire trajectory of a child’s life.

Along the way, they share how programs like Safe Harbor, mentoring initiatives, and family visitation centers provide structure, stability, and connection for kids and families navigating real challenges. They also talk about the role of community collaboration, why prevention matters more than reaction, and how volunteers, donors, and local leaders can all play a part in creating lasting change.

If you’ve ever wondered how to make a meaningful difference in your community, this conversation makes it clear there’s a place for you in the work.
