Welcoming, Supporting, Empowering: The Work of the Center for New Americans

Join us for a conversation with Laurie Millman, Executive Director of the Center for New Americans, a Western Massachusetts nonprofit dedicated to welcoming, supporting, and empowering immigrants, refugees, migrants, and asylum seekers.

Laurie will share the mission and work of the Center for New Americans, which provides free English classes, citizenship and immigration services, community resources, and wrap-around support to help newcomers build stable, connected lives in our region.

Since becoming Executive Director in 2009, Laurie has led the organization through years of growth and deepening community engagement. Her work reflects a long-standing commitment to education, access, dignity, and helping people overcome barriers as they establish new lives in Western Massachusetts.
