NIIC 2016 in Nashville!

The 2016 NIIC will be held in Nashville, Tennessee with our partners at the Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRRC).

When you think about Nashville you may think about country music and cowboy boots, but did you know that Nashville has one of the fastest-growing immigrant populations in the country? Like many cities across the Southeast, Nashville has become one of America’s new gateway cities for immigrant communities. We hope you’ll join us in Nashville to learn how Music City has emerged as a leader in immigrant integration and a model for new destination cities across the country. Stay tuned for details.

What others say about NIIC
