At Goshen College, the commitment to fostering a safe and supportive environment for immigrant students and their families has never been more critical. As immigration policies and societal attitudes continue to shift, many students face challenges that extend beyond the classroom. The college is actively working to create spaces where these individuals can not only pursue their education but also heal from the emotional and psychological trauma associated with their experiences.

Recognizing the unique hurdles that immigrant families encounter, the college has implemented various initiatives aimed at providing resources and support. This includes counseling services, community-building activities, and educational programs designed to address the specific needs of these students. By prioritizing safety and inclusivity, Goshen College aims to empower immigrant students, ensuring they have the opportunity to thrive academically and personally.

Through these efforts, the institution stands firm in its belief that education should be a sanctuary, where every student feels valued and capable of achieving their dreams, regardless of their background.
