STORIES WE SHARE: The Courage to Connect

Share your story during Welcoming Week, September 10-19, 2026.

Welcoming Week celebrates the growing movement of inclusive communities that fully embrace immigrants and their contributions to the social fabric of our country. With over 25,000 foreign-born individuals living in Champaign County, we all need different opportunities to engage, build mutual understanding and raise awareness of the benefits of welcoming all!

More information about this year's celebration coming soon!
