Welcoming America Announces “We’re All In” as 2024 Welcoming Week Theme
Welcoming America is excited to announce its campaign theme for its Welcoming Week 2024, an annual campaign celebrated in communities across the world, which will take place from September 13-22, 2024.
The campaign theme, “We’re All In,” calls on individuals and groups to come together in celebration of their strengths and differences and showcase how they are “All In” on building places that value all perspectives, backgrounds, experiences, and cultures.
In its 12th year, Welcoming Week consists of a series of days during which individuals and communities publicly proclaim welcoming values, host events, and lead initiatives for community constituents, building a deeper sense of belonging for all.
In a year where migration and democracy are at the forefront of national and international issues, the campaign invites communities to cultivate awareness and energy around the need for belonging through local programming during Welcoming Week while sustaining year-long welcoming efforts.
“Across the globe, neighbors are coming together during Welcoming Week in community celebrations of our shared belonging. While our origin stories may be different, we share a common future — one where we’re all in, and all the better for it,” said Rachel Perić, executive director of Welcoming America.
Participating partners, organizations, and individuals in Welcoming Week will receive a robust toolkit with best practices, communications and events guidance, and customizable materials to support tailored planning and hosting of events across their communities.
Organizations and local governments interested in participating are encouraged to learn more about Welcoming Week and consider participating in this year’s efforts. For more information, visit Welcoming Week’s website at www.welcomingweek.org.
