The Immigrant Family Services Institute's mission is to expedite the successful integration of recent immigrants into the social and economic fabric of the United States with justice and dignity.IFSI focuses on children first. Educating children yields enormous benefits not only for the children but for society as youth engage and become productive members of the workforce. When institutions like IFSI step in to guide families and support children, we all benefit from the rich diversity immigrant families bring to our communities. Immigrant Family Services Institute provides targeted academic support and enrichment services, using an holistic approach that addresses the unique challenges of immigrant children as a way to maximize their full potential in school and beyond.In addition, IFSI advocates for immigrant rights, most recently addressing current TPS recipients by helping with alternative paths to citizenship and providing accurate and timely information about and responses to new developments. IFSI is currently developing a Navigator Program to provide one-stop service for recent immigrants to access education, employment, healthcare and other services critical to successful integration.
