About us

Championing human rights, education, and wellness — from Jackson Heights to the world.

World Human Rights USA is a Jackson Heights, Queens nonprofit advancing human rights, education, and wellness across New York City’s diverse immigrant communities and around the world.

Our mission

Defending human rights, education, and wellness in the communities that need it most.

Why we exist

World Human Rights USA was created to stand with our neighbours — immigrants and families building new lives in one of the most diverse places on earth — and to extend that solidarity around the world. This is sample placeholder narrative; replace it with the organisation’s real founding story.

Our values

Dignity

Everyone is treated as a capable person, never a case number.

Equity

We focus where the need — and the barriers — are greatest.

Education

Knowledge is how rights become real and lasting.

Wellness

Health and wellbeing are human rights, not luxuries.

Leadership

Meet the people behind the work.
