Immigration Strategic Plan

The City of San Antonio in partnership with the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, New American Economy, and Welcoming America convened a community input process with the goal of creating a strategic plan to make San Antonio a more welcoming place for immigrants and refugees.

This collaboration was part of the Gateways for Growth Challenge, a competitive opportunity for local communities to receive grants and technical support to evaluate the economic impact of immigrants on the local economy and create a multi-sector immigrant integration strategy.
