QCAIR is pleased to announce the receipt of a $20,000 grant from the New Americans Initiative. The grant will be used to assist Lawful Permanent Residents in the Illinois Quad Cities by providing information, to those who desire it, on citizenship eligibility and provide assistance in obtaining citizenship.
This program will work to identify Lawful Permanent Residents interested in naturalization. We will also refer immigrants and refugees to the Quad Cities World Relief office and Black Hawk College for screening, any necessary education and paperwork completion for obtaining US Citizenship.
The purpose of QCAIR is to build stronger, long-lasting relationships among refuges, immigrants and the receiving community of the Quad Cities.
Please call Nana Ouro-Agoro, QCAIR NAI Coordinator, 309-716-7437 or email nana.ouro-agoro@acair.org with requests for additional information on the grant. For information on QCAIR please contact our Executive Director: Ikponwonsa Oriaikhi, 309-786-2995 (office) or email: IK@qcair.org.
