Immigrants
From our decades-long neighbors to the newest New Yorkers, immigrants enrich communities across Brooklyn
Our Approach
Pursuing the American Dream comes with many challenges for immigrants to Brooklyn: it can be difficult to meet basic needs, there are many legal barriers to employment, and those without legal status face constant threat of detainment or deportation.
Brooklyn Org supports immigrant-led organizations working to ensure that their communities have the tools they need to thrive and receive culturally-appropriate holistic support in their native languages. We are invested in boosting access to job training and placement, mental and emotional wellbeing, legal services, and other avenues that create a true sense of belonging and connectedness for Brooklyn’s diverse immigrant populations.
