More than 300 policymakers, practitioners, and experts and are expected to gather at the National Immigrant Integration Conference in Boston this year.
NIIC will address four critical areas: naturalization, economic growth, host communities, and justice and civil rights. Over 20 strategy sessions will cover topics include: education, naturalization, fundraising, civic engagement, workforce development, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, and state and local integration initiatives.
The Partnership for New Americans selected Boston because of the rich diversity of immigrant communities and the long history of progressive integration policies in the state. The breadth and depth of Massachusetts' immigrant community, the 7th largest overall immigrant population in the nation, provides a unique backdrop for inclusion and integration discussions as it represents one of the nation's most diverse populations. Governor Patrick will offer his New American Agenda as one example of uniting forces across all sectors to foster immigrant integration.
