Description

According to the latest report by the Office of Immigration Statistics, about 1 million individuals immigrate to the USA each year. The Newcomer s Handbook for Moving to and Living in the USA is designed to help these new arrivals and other newcomers to our country know what to expect as they explore and adjust to their new home. While providing a wealth of practical information on all aspects of life in the USA, from navigating our legal, health care, and educational systems to finding places to live, worship, volunteer, and shop; to understanding U.S. culture, holidays, sports, and customs, the Newcomer s Handbook for the USA also focuses on the importance of exploiting local resources in this rapidly changing environment, stressing use of the internet, local yellow pages, and the public library.
