Mission Statement
The mission of the International Institute of New England is to create opportunities for refugees and immigrants to succeed through resettlement, education, career advancement and pathways to citizenship.
Description
The International Institute of New England has been welcoming refugees and immigrants to Massachusetts and New Hampshire for nearly a century.
IINE: Lowell was founded as part of the John Street YWCA in 1918, and in 1924, the International Institute of Boston
was established at the YWCA then located at 12 Newbury Street. The Institutes separated from the YWCA in 1935, and over the ensuing decades hundreds of community groups, individuals, corporations, and foundations joined forces with the International Institute to help new Americans integrate into New England. The International Institute of New Hampshire was founded in 1994 as a reorganization, continuation, and expansion of existing services in place since 1987. In 2001 the three sites became one consolidated organization - The International Institute of New England.
