Hard Rock Stadium Announces Creation of Sensory and Nursing Rooms
MIAMI GARDENS, FL — Hard Rock Stadium and the Miami Dolphins announced the creation of Sensory and Nursing Rooms, two new spaces designed to ensure guests have a comfortable and private experience on game days and other events.
“We always strive to accommodate and assist guests at Hard Rock Stadium and we are excited about expanding our services for those with sensory processing and nursing needs,” Miami Dolphins Vice President of Human Resources and Performance Management Sam Coghill said. “The creation of both of these spaces were driven by Hard Rock Stadium staff ideas and we knew we had a natural partner in the Marino Foundation to make the sensory room come to life. This was an extremely rewarding project and we are thrilled to provide these safe and inclusive environments for all of our fans.”
Located in section 153, the Sensory Room is a private air-conditioned room for guests to use as a quiet space. The room is outfitted with a padded floor, padded wall mounted equipment and other sensory supplies donated by The Dan Marino Foundation.
“The Dan Marino Foundation is excited to partner with Hard Rock Stadium and the Miami Dolphins in opening a Sensory Room for children with autism,” The Dan Marino Foundation CEO Mary Partin said. “The stadium has always provided amenities, including sound-reducing headphones and stress relievers. The new Sensory Room gives families the opportunity to attend games and concerts with peace of mind by knowing there is a quiet place for their child if needed.”
The Sensory Room is staffed by a certified behavior professional provided by InBloom Autism Services to help provide guests any additional support they may need for a comfortable experience. Hard Rock Stadium guest experience team members will also be onsite to staff the area for all major events. In addition, Microsoft has donated a Surface device to help manage the environment of the Sensory Room and several noise-cancelling headsets have been donated by Bose. Additional noise cancelling headsets donated by Bose are available at any of the Guest Experience Headquarters for use during major stadium events at Sections 115, 143, 215, 243, 315 and 343.
The new Nursing Room in section 153 features a private air-conditioned feeding and sitting area, television, changing table and vanity sink with mirror. Like the Sensory Room, Hard Rock Stadium guest experience team members will staff the area to ensure a comfortable and private experience.

Miami Dolphins Partner with Ross Initiative in Sports for Equality (RISE), Miami-Dade Schools Police Department and North Miami Police Department for FOOTBALL UNITES™ Community Building and Ride-Along
MIAMI – As part of the Miami Dolphins FOOTBALL UNITES™ program, Miami Dolphins players, cheerleaders and staff spent the day with the Miami-Dade Schools Police Department and the North Miami Police Department to discuss community policing and take part in youth engagement activities.
The Dolphins worked with RISE, the Ross Initiative in Sports for Equality—a non-profit created by Dolphins Owner Stephen Ross dedicated to harnessing the unifying power of sports to improve race relations— on a series of facilitated discussions with high school students and law enforcement designed to break barriers and strengthen communities. To learn more about RISE, visit www.RISEtoWIN.org.
“What FOOTBALL UNITES™ and RISE has done is bring people together using sports as that unifier,” RISE Vice President of Leadership and Education of Programs Kim Miller said. “We need to have relationships between communities and law enforcement to make progress. We hope people can stop and think, ‘what is it that I can do’? We each can be a leader whether you’re a 15-year-old or a 40-year-old officer, so we hope that we gave people that sense of empowerment that they can truly be change agents.”
Jerome Baker, Raekwon McMillan and cheerleaders began their morning with the Miami-Dade Schools Police Department (MDSPD) and visited Hialeah (Fla.) High School to participate in a RISE-led workshop with officers and the students of Coral Gables, Hialeah and Norland High Schools on the perceptions of law enforcement and teens and how together they can work to improve them and build a stronger community. The group later visited Madison Middle School to further spread the message of unity and togetherness.
“It’s an awesome opportunity when actual players that live in the community can take time out of their busy schedules and foster that relationship with kids and build that relationship as well,” Miami-Dade Schools Chief of Police Edwin Lopez said. “It’s a great opportunity for kids to see not only law enforcement but the commonalities and similarities between themselves and the players who were once them at their age. I think that the players of the Miami Dolphins are able to hear firsthand from law enforcement and from kids and I believe that law enforcement can hear from kids as well and their perspectives so it’s just an information sharing opportunity to highlight social issues that happen in the community. We all see the news and we are able to see one perspective but here we are able to ask certain questions face to face and really get to the root of certain issues and improve. We can improve as law enforcement. I’m sure the students can improve in some way as well and then we have the Miami Dolphins players that are there to serve in many capacities and share personal insight and make them part of a team.”
“With FOOTBALL UNITES™ we brought together law enforcement and people within the community and we talked about how we can bridge the gap between each other because us as people have a fear for law enforcement and try to stay away from them,” Miami Dolphins linebacker Raekwon McMillan said. “I learned some perspective on how law enforcement works, how they think and how we can help ourselves be in a better relationship with them. It’s always good to get around the youth and to just change their perspective on how they see police officers as well. They are our tomorrow. They are the future so it is us coming out to see them and letting them know that law enforcement is positive and not a negative and can help them in the long run. That is what the sport of football is for.”
Later in the day, Walt Aikens, Kalen Ballage, MarQueis Gray, Kenny Stills and cheerleaders met with the North Miami Police Department (NMPD) and their Police Athletic League (PAL) program to take part in a similar RISE-led session. After the session, the Dolphins took part in a ride along with NMPD where they stopped to see their new PAL center, partially funded through the FOOTBALL UNITES™ program and visited the Center Court Apartments in a surprise meet and greet with residents.
“Although we have different perspectives on things throughout life and throughout the community, just because they’re different doesn’t mean they are wrong,” North Miami Chief of Police Larry Juriga said. “We can have an understanding now after talking with the kids and talking with the players and we might not always agree but we can certainly understand better. If we show that we are unified in trying to engage and trying to make things better then it will lead to a better community for all of us.”
“It was all about perspective; I didn’t know that these kids viewed the officers this way and we have to change that as adults,” Miami Dolphins cornerback Walt Aiken said. “For the officers, they see the same things that we see in the youth and they know that they are our future and we have to positively influence them to better ourselves and the future.”

UltiPro’s reputation within the professional sports industry made our choice easy.”
The Miami Dolphins is eager to use UltiPro’s single suite application to simplify its HR infrastructure and maximize department resources. Additionally, the Miami Dolphins and Ultimate have an established community relationship that has served and strengthened South Florida.
“UltiPro is designed with the flexibility to handle the special challenges faced by hospitality services providers,” said Greg Swick, chief enterprise sales officer at Ultimate. “We are excited to partner with our longtime friends and community advocates at the Miami Dolphins and continue our shared work on behalf of the residents of South Florida.”

Miami Dolphins FOOTBALL UNITES™ In Partnership With Israeli Consulate in Miami and Miami Lighthouse for the Blind Provide Wearable Artificial Intelligence for the Holiday Season
MIAMI – In spirit of the holiday season, Miami Dolphins player TJ McDonald, staff and FOOTBALL UNITES™ community partners visited the Miami Lighthouse for the Blind to deliver four wearable artificial intelligence devices to selected recipients on Monday, Nov. 26. Purchased by the Israeli Consulate in Miami, the OrCam Technologies are designed to improve the lives of individuals who are blind, visually impaired and have reading difficulties.
“These OrCam devices help these children who are having trouble seeing, it helps them read, helps them recognize faces and it will help level the playing field for them,” Miami Dolphins Safety TJ McDonald said. “Talking to them, they all had similar interests as me growing up. I think that it will be able to eliminate some of the challenges they might have and be able to keep pushing forward and achieve their goals. It feels awesome, it’s exciting to be able to see the looks on their faces it definitely makes me feel good and I am excited for their futures.”
“Because of the Miami Dolphins and Israeli Consulate in Miami, Miami Lighthouse is having a transformational day for our blind and visually impaired students who can succeed successfully academically because of the OrCam device,” President and CEO of Miami Lighthouse for the Blind Virginia Jacko added.
The individuals selected to receive the artificial intelligence devices include:
- Emily Bejerano – A freshman at Coral Park High School who wants to become a teacher for the visually impaired when she grows up. She has hearing and visual impairments. Emily enjoys dancing in her spare time and is currently learning braille.
- Diandre Incera – A student in his last year at Fienberg Fisher K-8 center middle school and is blind. His goal is to become a lawyer. In his free time, Diandre likes to study law and even knows all the bill of rights by heart.
- Marnel Jean – A senior at Michael Krop Senior High School who would like to pursue a law degree. He plays the trombone and is part of the Miami Youth Orchestra. He comes from a single parent home.
- Sebastian Torres – A transgendered client who lost his vision due to diabetic retinopathy. He is a trained cello player and wants to pursue music training once he competes his rehabilitation.
“I was shocked when I first heard that I am going to get an OrCam,” Incera said. “I feel like it’s an honor. I think it is going to help me pursue my career in law because if there is an assignment or a test that I need to take I think this OrCam is going to be extremely useful. I thank the Dolphins and everyone involved. I thank them for being here and for giving us this gift because it is honestly one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. It is literally life changing.”
“We want to help level the playing field for these students so that they may have just as much of an opportunity not only in the classroom but in life,” Miami Dolphins Senior Vice President of Communications and Community Affairs Jason Jenkins said. “Our goal with FOOTBALL UNITES™ is to be inclusive and aware of the diversity that make up South Florida by uniting groups of different races, genders, sexual orientations, identities and disabilities through power of football and I think we did that here today.”
