Welcome to NYC Initiative

The Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to providing compassionate support for newcomers settling into the vibrant community of New York City. Located in Voorhees, NJ, our program offers essential resources and guidance tailored for individuals and families relocating to New York City. We emphasize practical assistance across two key areas: legal services, which include initial assessments, know-your-rights guidance, and referrals for specialized legal help, and non-legal services that encompass self-help materials, case management, interpretation, travel assistance, medical and mental health services, essential needs like food and clothing, housing support, and access to public benefits. Our mission is to ensure that every newcomer feels welcomed and equipped to thrive in their new environment, fostering a smoother transition into city life.
