Settlement Workers can provide support with citizenship, housing, education, English language assessments, connecting with community resources and much more.
As a primary settlement agency in Cambridge, YMCA Immigrant Services acts as a “first stop” for newcomers. Through the YMCA Library Settlement Partnership (LSP), Settlement Workers are located within libraries to continue to support newcomer and immigrant needs. Through the YMCA's collaboration with Idea Exchange, together we are working to foster a smooth transition into the Cambridge Community.
