In FY2019, the creation of our first two hub locations in Buffalo and Long Island occured in close partnership with existing local NYIC member organizations. The NYIC also continued to build the capacity of our members throughout the state to improve the effectiveness of our member organizations work and mitigate the challenges of the external climate capacity challenges compounded by federal policy changes that targeted immigrants and communities of color. In addition to capacity-building re-grants, technical assistance, and leadership and professional development, we engaged member organizations in ongoing capacity-building initiatives such as our Americorps VISTA program. 2333698 Immigrant Services SupportThe NYIC offers trainings to providers to deepen expertise and expand capacity, host know-your-rights events across the state, and equip members with skills to do the same. In FY2019, we expanded our signature Key to the City initiative monthly events which offer wraparound consular and legal services to immigrant communities and have served 36,371 New Yorkers since 2011. Within the events themselves, we expanded the provision of social services to include public benefits screenings and enrollment, vaccination drives, legal consultations, and college preparation counseling. We also continued to prepare providers to respond to immigrants greatest needs through our Immigrant Concerns Training Institute, which offers free trainings to attorneys, accredited representatives, and staff of organizations that serve immigrants; and our Immigrant Advocates Response Collaborative, which fosters resource sharing and communication between providers across the state.In partnership with National Partnership for New Americans (NPNA) and Jones Day Law Firm, the NYIC revamped its Navigator program WE Lead to train a tight cohort of primarily immigrant women on both substantive immigration law, as well as related issues that often emerge for community members. Navigators were not only educated on key immigration topics, but required to practice providing Know-Your-Rights training on them, with the expectation that they would take the information back to their communities. After completing the structured navigator curriculum, we followed up with additional training opportunities on topics of interest to navigators, such as immigrant access to health care and public charge. 2290135 Policy and AdvocacyDrawing on our expanded presence in key regions and partnerships with regional member organizations, the NYIC achieved meaningful change for our communities in FY2019 - as evident by historic wins and the tremendous positive impact on the quality of life of immigrant New Yorkers. The NYIC's Green Light NY: Driving Together statewide campaign and coalition advocated for all New Yorkers, regardless of immigration status, the ability to obtain a driver's license; and in June 2019, with our partners and member organizations, we won the passage of Green Light legislation, restoring access to driver's licenses for all New York residents.The NYIC's 2019 Immigrants Vote! Campaign reached 242,466 individuals for nonpartisan civic engagement in the run up to the 2019 local elections and New York's first ever early vote. In preparation for the 2020 Census and to ensure that immigrants and other hard-to-count communities will be more accurately represented, the NYIC created a one-of-a-kind statewide coalition, New York Counts 2020, with more than 110 members from every sector. Together, we successfully pushed for New York City and State to commit $20 million and $40 million, respectfully, to Census outreach. At the same time, we led a national campaign to ensure that a question about citizenship status - which would be disastrous for immigrants and for our democracy - would not be added to the Census. Our lawsuit against the citizenship question on the 2020 Census resulted in the Supreme Court rejecting the federal administration's stated reason for adding the citizenship question and blocking its inclusion.The NYIC has adopted a more holistic, two-generational approach to our education work. In FY2019 with Pre-K For All available in New York City, the NYIC continued to work with the Department of Education and our members to link immigrant families to Pre-K and 3-K programs, identify major barriers to enrollment, and advocate for the NYCDOE to address concerns raised by families. In addition to early childhood education, we worked with the NYCDOE to identify ways to support students learning English, particularly older students or those with interrupted formal education. Our Adult Literacy Education work focused on ensuring that immigrant New Yorkers have opportunities to learn English, better integrate into their communities, and bolster their families. This work dovetailed with our comprehensive statewide agenda, which was based on our 2018 statewide assessment to understand the education needs of immigrant communities across the state. Additionally, on January 2019, the NYIC and our allies celebrated the historic passage of the New York State DREAM Act, which extends state-funded college scholarships to thousands of undocumented youth. In order to address information-sharing and meet the information and service needs of immigrant communities, we engaged in extensive outreach and community engagement to clarify the application process and ensure that DREAMers benefit from the new program.In a year of extreme uncertainty about federal policy around health care and coverage and immigration status, the NYICs priorities were to expand access and coverage for immigrants through our Coverage 4 All Campaign and Coalition and to prevent retaliation for any immigrant seeking services. The NYICs and its partners spearheaded two major victories for immigrant health in New York City. First, the New York City Council more than doubled funding for Access Health NYC, an initiative that supports community-based organizations and health centers to conduct health care access education and outreach in communities that have been historically isolated from services. In the same context, Mayor Bill de Blasio committed $100 million in January 2019 to create NYC Care, a program to ensure high-quality, coordinated care for the citys uninsured population at New York Citys Health + Hospitals (H+H). Significantly, the NYIC led the public response in New York following the posting of the federal administrations proposed public charge rule changes on October 10, 2018, which would force families to choose between their health and someday adjusting their status or naturalizing. Our outreach efforts contributed to the submission of more than 216,000 comments condemning the changes during the public comment period. We also coordinated the response to the rule finalization on August 14, 2019, and continued to monitor ongoing threats. The chilling effect was devastating to our communities, and the NYIC focused on providing resources and leading trainings to ensure immigrant families do not unnecessarily disenroll from vital public benefits. 6964451 true true false true false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 37 0 true 72 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false false X 22 22 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false NY X Steven Choi 2126272227 131 W 33rd Street Suite 610 New York NY 10001 Guillermo Chacon Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Luz Tavarez-Salazar Vice Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Gonzalo Mercado Vice Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Annetta Seecharran Vice Chair 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Elisie St Louis Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Muzaffar Chishti Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mohammad Razvi Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Hirschhorn Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carola Otero Bracco Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Pia Sawhney Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Paul Kim Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carmen Maquilon Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Estela Vazquez Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Park Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mae Lee Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Suzette Brooks Masters Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Cyrus Mehta Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Fatima Shama Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ping Moy Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Manuel Castro Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Megan Chambers Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Margo Paz Trustee 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Steven Choi Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 151452 0 5222 Sara Rakita Exec.
