Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava recently announced the appointment of Sonia Grice, division chief in the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources (RER), as the new director of the Community Action and Human Services Department (CAHSD).

Grice has served Miami-Dade County for over 25 years, working in multiple roles across the Department of Human Services, the Office of the Mayor, and RER.

“I’m delighted to welcome Sonia, a long-time public servant and proven leader within Miami-Dade County government, to this critical role,” said Mayor Levine Cava. “As a compassionate leader with a long career in our human services teams, I know she will do excellent work directing the delivery of essential services to so many vulnerable communities as CAHSD director — including the elderly, veterans, low-income families, and more.”

In Grice’s current role as division director in RER, she is responsible for the day-to-day management of the department’s legislative and intergovernmental activities, establishing and implementing department policies and procedures, overseeing communications and public affairs, and more.

In the Office of the Mayor she assisted the deputy mayor with the management and oversight of departments including Aviation, Regulatory and Economic Resources, Seaport, and Water and Sewer.

Sonia received her Master of Science in Management and Graduate Certificate in Human Resource Management from St. Thomas University and a BS in Psychology from Tennessee State University.
