Immigrant Advancement Organizations

In anticipation of Little Amal‘s arrival on SEP 07, we have compiled this list of local and national immigrant advancement resources. Amal means “hope” in Arabic and she brings the message of welcoming and supporting our refugee, migrant, and immigrant communities. Although Little Amal leaves Boston on SEP 09, we will continue uplifting her message.

(This list is presented here as a resource and may not be comprehensive.)
