Welcoming Week 2023: September 8 - 23

Each year Welcoming Week provides an opportunity to celebrate our sense of belonging to our community--whether we grew up here, recently immigrated, "never planned to stay this long," or anywhere in between. 

Join community friends and partners at free, family-centered events through September 17.  Event links can be found on the Welcoming Week page or on Facebook @ynawc. Welcoming Week has something for everyone: celebrations, presentations, ceremonies, game nights, nature walks, and more.

Welcoming Week celebrates the growing movement of inclusive communities that fully embrace immigrants and their contributions to the social fabric of our country. 

LWVCC is a collaborating partner with the New American Welcome Center and many other local organizations in this celebration.  LWVCC volunteers had a table at the September 8 kick-off for the week.
