Youth organizations have both an opportunity and a responsibility to encourage and support the healthy development of the growing numbers of immigrant youth.   This resource provides the context of the immigrant youth experience and practical guidance for hiring, developing and retaining staff to work with this population.  It is based on hands-on experience by national and local youth organizations who do this work effectively.  (NYDIC is a project of the National Collaboration for Youth, a coalition of National Human Service Assembly member organizations, with headquarters in Washington DC.)
