Our Mission
Immigrants are part of the backbone of the USA. With a million people arriving in the country each year, the USA has the largest immigrant population in the world. For many, it could be a big challenge to have to adapt to a totally new environment – new language, local custom, social system, etc.
If you are new to the USA and this sounds familiar to you, you have come to the right place.
The Immigrant Support Center is dedicated to providing you with the most comprehensive and latest update on everything related to building a new life here.
From navigating the different government departments and programs to educating you and your children, to finding the right housing, you will find all the information you need to succeed in your new home.
