For 15 years, Welcoming America has worked with members and partners across the globe to build inclusive communities where everyone belongs. This first State of Welcoming report highlights the history of our contributions to the welcoming movement, why welcoming matters, critical lessons learned, and where we go from here. The 2024 State of Welcoming report is a call to build the future of welcoming with courage, conviction, and commitment. Whether you are a community leader, an executive, a funder, a public servant, a parent, or a neighbor, you have a role to play in welcoming.
