The Welcome to NYC Initiative, based in Sicklerville, NJ, is dedicated to providing essential support and guidance to newcomers transitioning to the dynamic city of New York. Our comprehensive program offers a warm welcome through crucial resources in both legal and non-legal services. We assist individuals and families with initial assessments, legal rights education, and referrals for legal services and fraud information. In addition, we offer case management, interpretation and translation support, and travel assistance. Our commitment extends to fulfilling essential needs such as food assistance, clothing, housing access, and support with navigating public benefits, ensuring that each newcomer feels informed, empowered, and cared for as they settle into their new community.
