No one enjoys leaving their home, but when calamities occur there is sometimes no choice. Due to political and natural disasters, such as the earthquake in 2010, the number of Haitian immigrants in the United States has increased to 700,000 in the last 30 years. Many of these immigrants were encouraged to come to America for safe keeping until the year of 2018. Most of these Haitians have plans to stay in the country illegally. Very few of these immigrants have understanding towards the American life. To help them become legal, the United States can create an adaption program to aid immigrants in acquiring abilities to speak English, maintain economic stability, and provide workers for the United States. One of the biggest obstacles illegal immigrants face is their incapability to speak English. Many Haitians have a lifestyle far from that of Americans. They are already out of place on their way of life alone and their language can make this even harder for them. The Adaption program will offer tutoring and courses to teach basic English needed to communicate well with other U.S. citizens. The people who will be teaching these courses will be students and interns needing in class experience to receive their degrees and jobs. This allows both the immigrants and U.S. citizens to benefit from the teachings. …show more content…
Most illegal immigrants are coming from poverty and end up in the same living situation but just in a new place. The Adaption program allows counseling to those who are suffering financially. The program would allow the immigrants to learn how to economically stable themselves by learning how to make, keep, and spend money. Most Haitians are coming from a deficit lifestyle, not knowing how to pay bills or keep track of money and investments. And like the English classes, this counseling will also be taught by United States citizens who need experience for their degrees and
The need for this program is crucial, Patricia Gandara explains in her article, Special Topic/The Latino Education Crisis, that the Hispanic population is the fastest growing minority in the United States and educational youth population but are the most poorly educated of all the main racial groups in the United States. (Gandara, 2010). She also explains in her article that the US Census Bureau estimates that by the year 2021 one in four students in the United States will be of Hispanic descent. (Gandara, 2010). An article from the Pew Research Center written by Mark Lopez, explains
The purpose of the immigrant program is to assist men, women, and families who are having difficulties in regards to cultural
Granting the New Beginnings' facility to youth immigrants will provide them with the education they need. Coming to the United States at a young age, the immigrant children will be taught elementary to college-based work. The children will be exposed to different languages and learn to speak English just as Americans do. As they grow older and search for jobs, even being bilingual can offer higher-paying job opportunities. As the children grow up, they will learn and be able to interact with other in a

However, beside the millions of legal immigrants there are millions of illegal immigrants target as a struggle of the economy and a ruin of the middle class.
Mexicans that immigrate to the United States bring with them cultural diversity and unique skills that are beneficial to both the immigrants and Americans from an employment, education and cultural standpoint. Helping All is a program that requires Mexican immigrants under the age of 18 go to school and offers the opportunity for them to tutor Americans in Spanish. Mexicans over the age 18 have to get a job that will help pay for citizenship and receive less support from the government, therefore saving the American people money. The United States will allow 100 Mexicans to immigrate each year and live in subsidized housing paid by the federal government.
Immigration has existed around the world for centuries, decades, and included hundreds of cultures. Tired of poverty, a lack of opportunities, unequal treatment, political corruption, and lacking any choice, many decided to emigrate from their country of birth to seek new opportunities and a new and better life in another country, to settle a future for their families, to work hard and earn a place in life. As the nation of the opportunities, land of the dreams, and because of its foundation of a better, more equal world for all, the United States of America has been a point of hope for many of those people. A lot of nationals around the world have ended their research for a place to call home in the United States of America. By analyzing
Immigrant groups take refuge in America in hope of starting a better life for themselves and their ongoing generations. They take on the belief that upon coming to America, they will be presented by the riches and freedom granted by the “American Dream”. However, these opportunities are not easily achieved. Many immigrant families are challenged with the initial obstacles of having to adapt to the new languages and the customs of their environment. For example, without the basic knowledge of the standard English language, immigrants will not be able to apply for a majority of the jobs available. This puts immigrant parents at disadvantages because then they will not be able to provide the sufficient funds needed for allowing their children

Presently, immigration reforms are being considered to make it easier for foreigners to start a new life in the United States of America.
As the number of illegal immigrants entering the United States begins to increase once more, the issue of allowing or prohibiting immigrants to gain temporary status in order to obtain work continues to create national problems. According to a report given by the Department of Homeland Security, it is estimated that the number of immigrants entering the U.S. is at about 1.1 million people per year. (Hanson Par. 1) These individuals come into the United States in search of better living conditions and opportunities. However, these immigrants face challenges when it comes to work and other types of living.
American citizens need to work and immigrants want to get into the country, this is something our government or privet organization may consider taking advantage of. In the ‘work’ part of this plan, there will a food bank to help the less fortunate here in our country, and then the immigrants would come in and they would serve the people that came in. This would take place in local churches where the immigrants are entering the country. They would perform this task until they master the ‘Schooling’ part of the program.
The term illegal immigration refers to the diversity between whom the United States will accept as an immigrants and the desire of foreign nationals to live and work in this country. About 90% of the illegal immigrants in the United States are of Mexican nationals. Throughout the history, the United States has been raised to be the shelter for immigrants all around the world. Foreign nationals have flocked to its shores, slaving for the American freedom and its economic opportunities (Chiswick, 1988). As these immigrants are suffering from poverty, unemployment and lack of education.

Immigration is the process of entry of individuals into a new country (23). Throughout past centuries, immigration has been a means of discovery and exploration of new lands. In today’s culture, immigration to the United States is an avenue for individuals who wish to start new lives and take advantage of the capitalistic, entrepreneurial system. People from many countries have migrated into the United States. Most recently, the migrants have come from Central and South American countries. These Latin American countries influence America’s society culturally and economically through their language, traditions, and workforce. From the 1990s to the present time, immigration from Latin American countries has more than
The program is made to help out the participants learn English in the most convenient and efficient way. New York adopted the program for spanish speaking immigrants that want to learn English but can’t learn it in a class and they simply just don’t have the time. The program is different from everything else. There are people who have tried other things and classes and none of them actually taught them English. The program gives the participants prerecord lessons that they listen to, then they can answer the questions through text when they can. If they have questions or they don’t understand something they can simply call them and talk to someone that will help them. They later complete the four lessons to eventually learn the language and
