- Dream in Green empowers individuals, especially youth, to lead in the response to climate change and other environmental challenges facing South Florida.
- Miami-Dade County Department of Environmental Resources Management permits, monitors and regulates all facilities with respect to the protection of ambient air quality and water distribution and enforces other environmental regulations under the purview of Miami-Dade County.
- The Cleo Institute is dedicated to climate education, advocacy and engagement. CLEO empowers Floridians to take climate actions by working with government, business, academic, and community leaders.
- Buddy System has established ten Community Fridges in Miami-Dade County, changing the landscape of food injustice. These fridges, existing in food deserts, have a simple message: take what you need, leave what you can.
To promote inclusion for all, Vizcaya ensures that all community programs, after-hour and weekend events for locals, feature activities that are physically accessible to all visitors. While not all areas of the estate are wheelchair accessible, community programs are purposefully located in areas without stairs or that can be accessed via a ramp.
