Every year, ABN hosts a graduation ceremony to celebrate the achievements of our yearly Immigrant Professionals Fellowship cohort. This year, we were proud to graduate the ten fellows, a majority of whom have already been placed in jobs, selected for residency, or received extensions of their fellowship.

This graduation is a celebration of the hard work and dedication of each and every fellow and symbolizes their transition into the next stages of their career.

As we look ahead to welcoming the next cohort of fellows, we would be honored to have your continued partnership and support in sustaining this transformative work.

One of ABN's primary goals is to build partnerships with community and employer partners to expand our network of resources. With this network, we can ensure that skilled immigrants across the state have access to any resources they may need.

We do this through our yearly series of Orientation Workshops and Information Sessions.

Across these programs, we shared valuable information on topics like immigration, ESOL, workforce development, education, mental health, and more.
