Hometown Associations: An Untapped Resource for Immigration Integration?
Somerville, Will; Durana, Jamie; Terrazas, Aaron Matteo
Migration Policy Institute, July 2008, 24p
"Hometown associations, the organizations that immigrants create for social, economic development, and political empowerment purposes, play an important role in immigrant integration. Though policymakers focus chiefly on the associations’ development potential, the report recommends cooperative interventions to strengthen their immigrant integration capacity."
All authors are affiliated with the Migration Policy Institute.
