Welcome to NYC Initiative

The Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to helping newcomers settle into the vibrant and diverse community of New York City from North Bergen, NJ. Our program offers vital resources and unwavering support for individuals and families relocating to NYC for the first time. We assist with a variety of needs, including legal services such as initial assessments and know-your-rights guidance, as well as referrals for legal and non-legal services. Our comprehensive case management includes interpretation and translation, travel assistance, and access to essential resources like food, clothing, medical and mental health services, and housing. We guide newcomers in navigating public benefits, ensuring a smooth transition into their new home.
