The Campaign
The Need
NYC’s immigrant student population is growing, but schools remain overcrowded and under–resourced for high school students who are young adults between the ages of 17 and 21. Cultural and language barriers make it difficult for students to thrive in traditional settings. Every student deserves a safe, supportive space to learn and grow.
Our Vision
Create new schools that can focus on immigrant students’ needs and establish partnerships with community organizations to provide wrap–around services to students.
The Impact
New schools mean better academic outcomes, stronger communities, and brighter futures for immigrant youth.
