Welcome to NYC Initiative

The Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to providing essential support and resources for newcomers settling in Williamstown, NJ, before their journey to the vibrant city of New York. Our mission is to ensure that individuals and families relocating for the first time have access to vital information and services that simplify their transition. We offer a range of assistance, including legal guidance and rights information, referrals for legal and non-legal services, case management, interpretation and translation, as well as support for essential needs like food, clothing, and housing. Our compassionate approach empowers newcomers to navigate their new environment with confidence, helping them connect with medical and mental health services and access public benefits, ensuring they feel welcomed and supported every step of the way.
