Immigrant Integration Toolkit I Can Help You!
Open Me:
Immigrant Integration is a dynamic, two-way process in which immigrants and the receiving societywork together to build secure, vibrant, and cohesive communities. (weareoneamerica.org)ImpactNV believes that immigrant integration should be an intentional process that engages andtransforms all community stakeholders, enriching everyone's social, economic, and civic life overtime. As such, we have partnered with Caesar’s Foundation, Make the Road Nevada, congressionaloffices and service providers who work with immigrant populations to create the first of its kindone-stop resource guide developed collaboratively to welcome New Nevadans to our community.The "Together We Prosper" immigrant integration toolkit provides information on resources forfood, shelter, education, healthcare, legal assistance, language access, advocacy, communityengagement and more. This toolkit will live on the ImpactNV site (impact-nv.org) as well as beavailable in a hard copy format to clients through our partners. The idea is that anyone who seeks information or resources in one area of need will have accessto an entire toolkit of other helpful information and resources all in one place; expediting andfacilitating community connection.
Did you know that you don’t have to be a citizen to get help from your Congressional offices? Youcan feel comfortable and safe reaching out and asking for help. Congressional offices collaboratewith many people and organizations in the community and are a great first step, conduit to helpyou in many ways: they can help guide you through legal processes, access resources, getquicker answers to your questions and can even assist with international travel and interactionswith embassies and federal agencies.
