The American Red Cross South Florida Region together with the University of Miami’s Institute for Cuban and Cuban American Studies (ICCAS) and other non-profit organizations have created an integrated humanitarian response plan for the South Florida community that would be implemented in the event of change in Cuba that affects our community.

The South Florida Humanitarian Network for Cuba (SFHN) was created on December 4, 2004. The work of the SFHN  is documented in the “Recommendations for Community Preparedness” report which was made public in June, 2006. It should be noted, however, that the work and participation of the American Red Cross South Florida Region in the South Florida Humanitarian Network for Cuba would focus on humanitarian assistance in South Florida only.
