WELCOMING WEEK IS COMING - SEPT 8-17
"WHEN PLACES DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS WELCOMING, WHAT DOES IT MEAN?"
"Being welcoming is much more than being friendly, tolerant, or peaceful. We believe that truly welcoming places have intentional, inclusive policies, practices, and norms that enable all residents to live, thrive, and contribute fully — including immigrants.
Welcoming places are made possible by welcoming people and leaders, including immigrants themselves. Whether you’re a student, librarian, government worker, or business owner, each of us is empowered to foster more welcoming places at work, in our neighborhoods, and places of gathering."
