NEW YORK, March 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- New Immigrant Community Empowerment (NICE) received Outten & Golden's fourth annual Public Interest Award during a reception hosted by O&G to celebrate and highlight NICE's ongoing effort to ensure that new immigrants can build social, political, and economic power in their communities and beyond. Outten & Golden LLP, a national preeminent employee rights firm, is pleased to recognize the achievements and mission of NICE, founded in 1999 when local activists came together in response to anti-immigrant billboards posted by the racist Project USA in the borough of Queens. After a successful campaign to take down the billboards, NICE made a name for itself through its Government Access and Accountability Program. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
