Building the Future, Together

New York has always been a beacon of hope where immigrants and people from around the world come to build better lives. We're ensuring that legacy continues.

We envision a state where everyone feels safe and welcome, neighbors know each other, and every community member is valued as essential.

Our Vision

We believe every New Yorker should feel safe walking down their street—regardless of where they came from. Where children grow up knowing their neighbors, and where immigrant store owners, nurses, teachers, and construction workers are valued as essential to our community.

We're making this vision reality by sharing stories that show how immigrants strengthen every corner of our state.

What We're Building

Every immigrant story we share comes from respect and authenticity. This isn't about politics—it's about recognizing that our immigrant neighbors are what make New York strong.

Together, we're making "New York is for All" a lived reality where immigrants belong in every community.

Our Promise

Our Stories, Our Strength

Immigrants built the New York we all love. This video series highlights the powerful contributions of immigrants in New York - from essential workers to loved family member to community leaders. 

Safety in Togetherness

Every New Yorker deserves to feel safe in our community. Immigrant communities contribute to neighborhood safety through trust, connection, and mutual support across all five boroughs.

Built by Dreamers

Immigrants are at the heart of our state's history, culture, and story. From Ellis Island to the skyscrapers that define NY and America, immigrants have been the builders, dreamers, and workers who shaped our economy and state.

Families Make New York Strong

Families belong together. When families stay together, it creates stable communities. Immigrants raise children here, contribute to our economy, and work hard to build a better future for all of us.

The Backbone of New York

Immigrants are essential workers, business owners, and contributors to our communities. They contribute significantly to New York's economy, paying millions in taxes that fund our schools, healthcare, and essential public services.

The Facts Speak for Themselves

Immigrants are not strangers. They are our neighbors, friends, and long-standing members of our communities. They go to school with our kids, prepare and serve our favorite meals, and contribute to the fabric of life that makes New York special.
