Welcome to NYC Initiative

Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to providing essential support for newcomers to New York City, ensuring that individuals and families can navigate their transition with confidence. Located in Riverside, NJ, our program offers vital resources including legal services such as initial assessments, rights education, and referrals, alongside non-legal services like case management, interpretation, medical support, and access to essential needs such as food, clothing, and housing. We believe that everyone deserves a warm welcome and the tools they need to thrive in their new community while connecting them to public benefits and self-help materials.
