Community Ambassadors

When you visit SFI, you may be welcomed by one of our Community Ambassadors, who are part of our hospitality team—greeting, orienting, and assisting visitors.

Our current cohort of ambassadors draws from the Emma Lazarus HS for English Language Learners, many of whom immigrated to the United States recently. They are part of a Learning to Work Program (LTW) in partnership with the Mission Society of NYC, where students gain insight into different career paths, build transferable skills, and put their English language skills to use. SFI is committed to supporting young people, especially those who may not have had a lot of work-based experiences, with opportunities to build these skills.
