Empowering new Americans to bridge gaps in culture and communication through language learning and civic awareness 

CARECEN’s Pathway to English program is back! After three successful years, from 2016 to 2019, of providing English instruction to immigrants in Suffolk and Nassau county, we are thrilled to announce that we have partnered with the New York Office of New Americans to once again hold these free classes for low income immigrants on Long Island. We are now enrolling students in Beginner 1 to intermediate levels for Quarter 1 classes, which will begin on January 10, 2022.  

The Pathway to English program is designed to provide learners with the language and literacy skills they need in order to succeed in their new community. Through improved English skills, students are able to bridge gaps in communication in their everyday activities and navigate new environments with confidence.  Instruction will be held virtually, facilitated by the highly-rated online learning platform Off 2 Class, which will allow our students and staff to stay safe while engaging with class material.
