Uniting NC – Articles

Uniting NC works to make North Carolina a place that respects and values immigrants. We help people understand, on a human level, the cultural changes that are transforming our state. We believe that, when people of different backgrounds get to know one another, they realize that we are all people who want the same things: safety, happiness and opportunity. Only after we understand our common humanity can we work together to build stronger, safer, more productive communities.

We pursue our mission by hosting events that bring people of all backgrounds together for meals, films and conversation. We produce public service announcements, billboards and videos that reveal the humanity of immigrants. And we are building a state-wide corps of volunteers working to make their communities more welcoming.
