Come meet new people, learn about different cultural traditions, share your story and make connections.

Welcoming Week brings New River Valley neighbors of all backgrounds together to build strong connections and affirm the importance of welcoming and inclusive places. The YMCA at Virginia Tech is proud to host our 4th annual Welcoming Week.

Welcoming Week is an annual campaign that celebrates the work in communities to become welcoming places for all, including immigrants. Launched in 2012 by Welcoming America and its members, Welcoming Week provides individuals and organizations the opportunity to showcase their values through events and initiatives that foster connections and collaboration between immigrants and non-immigrants, as well as belonging for all.

The YMCA at Virginia Tech launched its Welcoming Initiative in 2021 in collaboration with Welcoming America as part of the Rural Welcoming Initiative. Join us in welcoming and strengthening belonging for newcomers and immigrants in our community.

The YMCA at Virginia Tech is located at 1000 North Main Street in Blacksburg, VA.
