Cabrini Immigrant Services, New York City (CIS-NYC

Cabrini Outreach Annual Report 2020-21 International development

Cabrini Immigrant Services opened their doors in New York City in 1999, and since then have been a leading organization helping the newest Americans realize their dreams. In the spirit of the Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini, Patroness of Immigrants, their goal is to provide vital services to their clients with excellence; and to advocate for changes in policies which will help the immigrant population as they continue to closely watch and respond to the shifts in American government policies. Cabrini Outreach’s partnership with CIS-NYC commenced in 2015, with the aim of helping them achieve their overall objective of improving health, mental health and wellbeing of low-income immigrant families in New York City.

During the past year Cabrini Outreach provided financial support to CIS-NYC, and through regular engagement and communication was able to witness this contribution make a difference to the lives of those being served. This included supporting their immigration legal services, basic case management and support (healthcare, housing, education, employment, financial resources, and public benefits), food pantry, immigrant family programs, community and adult education, and short-term counselling services.
