Welcoming NH Table

July 11 @ 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Free

Welcoming New Hampshire is a coalition of organizations and community leaders from across the state coming together to make New Hampshire more welcoming for everyone, with a particular focus on welcoming immigrants and refugees. We come together to learn from one another and to collectively raise up and address community concerns.

The Welcoming NH Table is the core of Welcoming NH.  The Table is a Bi-Monthly gathering with Informational speakers, networking, member updates. The table is meant to build professional relationships, opens doors to new opportunities, and facilitate the exchange of ideas and best practices. It also aids in individual career development, personal growth, and success as well as the success of our goal to make NH more welcoming.

Welcoming NH partners work to make NH more welcoming to immigrants by working to supply the services and by addressing the obstacles immigrants meet, which keep them from becoming full participating members of our community. To accomplish this we must address the laws, rules, and statutes that create obstacles to our work. To assist in that work and making NH more welcoming, we must address the larger culture in NH and counter the racist and xenophobic environment to make our community and legislators realize that when immigrants enter the labor force, they increase the productive capacity of the economy and raise GDP. Their incomes rise, but so do those of natives. It’s a improved phenomenon dubbed the “immigration surplus.” In addition to economics immigrants bring diversity and enrich the communities they join culturally.

Please join us at the welcoming table if you work with immigrants or if immigrants are a part of the communities you work with or support.
