NYIC Regional Round Tables seek to collectively harness our power, foster collaboration, and increase our capacity as advocates, non-profit service providers, and immigrant and allied leaders working with immigrant communities.   Round Tables convene key regional stakeholders to inform and be informed of current challenges and opportunities facing local immigrant communities, share relevant interventions, and develop effective local strategies for service and advocacy collaborations.  NYIC Regional Round Tables are an integral part of the participatory process, which directly shapes NYIC policy, program, and organizational priorities.   

 

The New York Immigration Coalition envisions a New York State that is stronger because all people are welcome, treated fairly, and given the chance to pursue their dreams. We unite immigrants, our members, and allies to impact positive change at the local, state and national level that ensures ALL New Yorkers can thrive.   

 

Regional Round Tables are hosted in collaboration with NYIC members and partners across New York State.
