What does it take to build a system of welcome that reflects the best of who we are?
In this episode of The Solve Effect, we sit down with Nazanin Ash, CEO of Welcome.US, to explore how millions of Americans are reshaping what safe, legal immigration can look like—one act of welcome at a time.
Under Nazanin’s leadership, Welcome.US has mobilized 2 million sponsors across all 50 states, helping nearly 800,000 newcomers rebuild their lives in the United States. But her work isn’t only about resettlement—it’s about reimagining what belonging can mean in a pluralist democracy.
This episode explores:
How tech-enabled sponsorship scaled faster than traditional government systems
Why communities across the country are now “competing to welcome” newcomers
What mutual flourishing looks like for sponsors, newcomers, and entire towns
A partnership across government, civil society, and the private sector unlocks capacity at national scale
Nazanin’s story reminds us that welcoming demonstrates collective power and shows how, when people are empowered to help one another, entire communities thrive.
