Nuha and Hala are twin sisters from Iraq who were resettled by NICE. Our employment team helped them find their first jobs in the U.S as retail associates at Target. While working, they pursued additional educational opportunities, and eventually secured jobs in their chosen careers as Senior Business Analysts.

Transcript
Every minute, 30 people worldwide are displaced from their homes due to war, unrest, or natural disaster.
In a new place, with a new language and culture, and away from all they’ve ever known, they start again.
At Nashville International Center for Empowerment,
we’re working toward a more peaceful, tolerant world—
—making sure every neighbor is welcomed with open arms and given every opportunity to live the life they dream of.
How? By helping our newest neighbors begin a new life in Nashville—
with education, language learning, health and job assistance, and everything they need to feel part of the community.
We’re creating a Nashville where everyone belongs,
no matter how far you’ve come to get here.
Because inclusion is a human right.
And while we may not be able to change the whole world all at once,
we can change it little by little,
starting within our own community,
one new neighbor at a time.
