DISCOVER 10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL REPORT

Our 10-Year Anniversary Special Report is a reflection on how far we’ve come, the women and partners who made it possible, and our vision for the next decade.

From our early days as a small grassroots initiative to serving more than 2,000 immigrant women through workforce development, community, and storytelling programs, NWNY has been a place where women from all over the world can build confidence, gain skills, and shape new futures in NYC. This year, we’ve reached exciting milestones—expanding into high-growth industries like clean energy and tech, and opening our first-ever Community Hub in the heart of Manhattan.

We invite you to read the Special Report and join us in shaping the next chapter.
