Welcome to NYC Initiative

Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to offering a warm and supportive environment for newcomers to New York City, based in Mays Landing, NJ. Our program is designed to provide essential resources and assistance to individuals and families relocating to this vibrant metropolis. We specialize in guiding participants through critical areas such as legal services, including initial assessments and rights education, as well as connections to legal service referrals. Beyond legal assistance, we offer comprehensive support in navigating non-legal services including travel assistance, medical care, mental health resources, and access to essential needs like food and clothing. Our commitment extends to helping individuals secure housing and access public benefits, ensuring that each newcomer feels welcomed, informed, and equipped to thrive in their new home.
