Dress for Success Miami is the women's program of Suited For Success (SFS). With almost 15 years of service to our at-risk populations in Miami, SFS has trained and suited over 25,000 women, men and youth in Miami-Dade County.

SFS provides training and clothing to economic-assistance recipients, ex-offenders, transitional housing clients,victims of domestic abuse, low-income high school students, youth in the foster care system, and other individuals who are struggling to secure and retain employment. 

One little known fact about SFS is that approximately 83% of the individuals who receive clothing from the agency first participate in a job skills training program. SFS has offered job skills training since its inception and views these courses as a key to supporting clients in effectively securing employment.
