Culture, shared.
Prosperity, gained.
Welcome Indiana exists to empower immigrant communities to create positive change in their communities.
What if immigrants were empowered to contribute?
We work with immigrants to build their capacity to evaluate their needs, participate fruitfully in public life, build capacity for leadership, and positively create change in their neighborhoods for the benefit of all.
According to the Migration Policy Institute, 7 percent of Indiana’s population in 2024 was foreign-born, totaling nearly 500,000 Hoosiers.
Language barriers, cultural differences, or a lack of job training impact immigrants’ ability to participate in the workforce, build families, and contribute fruitfully to their communities.
Welcome Indiana’s approach is grounded in listening to needs and responding with tools that help immigrants understand their gifts and use them for the benefit of all.
