Welcome to NYC Initiative

The Welcome to NYC Initiative is dedicated to providing a warm, supportive environment for newcomers to Valley Stream, NY, and the bustling city of New York. Our mission is to empower individuals and families relocating to the area by connecting them with vital resources and essential services. We offer a comprehensive range of assistance, including legal services such as initial assessments, Know Your Rights guidance, and legal referrals. Additionally, our non-legal support encompasses self-help materials, fraud information, case management, interpretation and translation, travel assistance, medical and mental health services, as well as access to food, clothing, and housing resources. We strive to ensure that every newcomer feels informed, supported, and welcomed as they begin their journey in New York City.
