OIC of South Florida

OIC of South Florida A community-based workforce training and job placement center serving youth and adults.

OIC of South Florida (OIC-SFL) is a community-based workforce development, education and training organization that prepares our youth and adult participants to lead responsible & productive lives with holistic high-quality and comprehensive life skills development, fundamental education, superior skills-based training and employment readiness services. We assist our students with overcoming the barriers they face at some of the most crucial transition points in their lives: young adults facing important crossroads, and adults challenged by unemployment, re-employment, underemployment and/or release from incarceration. Participants learn leadership & coping skills, earn relevant vocational credentials and also learn how to be capable, reliable and self-sufficient employees with strong work ethics.

Today, OIC of South Florida remembers the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honors the families, first responders, survivors, and communities forever changed by that day.

We remember their lives, their courage, and the spirit of unity that brought people together in the days that followed.

We remember. We honor.

Day 1 set the tone. Day 2, we’re taking it even further.

Yesterday, the 2026 Middle Class Summit brought leaders from across South Florida and beyond together for a powerful first day of bold conversations, meaningful connections, and ideas focused on strengthening economic mobility and the future of the middle class.

From the stage to the conversations happening throughout the room, Day 1 was a reminder of what becomes possible when leaders across business, government, education, workforce development, and our communities come together with a shared purpose.

And we’re not finished yet.

Day 2 starts today, with more voices, more perspectives, and more opportunities to turn conversation into action.

To everyone who joined us yesterday, thank you for bringing your energy, ideas, and perspective into the room. Now, let’s make Day 2 even stronger.
