Everyone deserves a chance to thrive.

Since 2005, NICE has helped refugees and immigrants find housing, work, and belonging in Middle Tennessee—because no one should have to build a new life alone.

Around the world, nearly 120 million people are displaced from their homes due to war, unrest, or natural disaster. When refugees and immigrants arrive in Tennessee, they are faced with language barriers, unfamiliar systems, and a lack of resources.

Our Programs

NICE helps fill the gaps by providing multiple programs for refugees and immigrants to thrive in their new community. Since 2005, NICE has served over 50,000 people in Middle Tennessee.

Volunteer

We can't do this work alone — welcoming our new neighbors takes a community! We'd love to match you with a volunteer opportunity that reflects your passions and experience.
