About Us

Our Vision & Mission

MISSION: We cultivate educational, economic, cultural, social, and physical and mental health resources in partnership with newcomers (refugees, immigrants, asylum-seekers, and others who are new to the United States) to empower them to achieve system change that supports their well-being and integration in their new communities.

VISION: 
We envision New Mexico leading the country in effective refugee resettlement and immigration policies and programs, which humanely support newcomers when they first arrive, build on and learn from the strengths that newcomers bring, and promote newcomer well-being and civic engagement in order to work towards a world where all individuals, families, and communities are able to reach their fullest potential.

  • Promoting mutual learning to help newcomers and others living in America understand each other and develop and support effective and just policies.

    Collaborating with other organizations, government agencies, and individuals to achieve our vision.

    Developing, implementing, adapting, evaluating, and disseminating programs that benefit newcomers.

    Building capacity and leadership skills of newcomers.
