Welcome to NYC Initiative

The Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to providing vital support and resources for individuals and families relocating to Farmingdale and New York City. With a focus on empowerment, we offer essential information and services to ensure newcomers feel informed and welcomed. Our program features comprehensive legal assistance including initial assessments, know-your-rights guidance, and referrals to trusted legal services. Beyond legal help, we address non-legal needs by offering self-help materials, interpretation and translation, and access to medical and mental health services. Additionally, we assist with essential needs like food, clothing, and housing, ensuring that newcomers can successfully navigate public benefits and find their footing in this dynamic city.
