Message from the Executive Director

Hello, I’m Tsering Diki, Executive Director of NYTSC. NYTSC was established in 2012 to create a space where Tibetan and immigrant families could find support, guidance, and connection to their cultural roots while adapting to life in a new country. Our vision has always been to provide programs and services that empower community members of all ages—helping them navigate challenges, preserve their heritage, and build opportunities for the future.

At NYTSC, we believe that success is measured not just in programs offered or milestones reached, but in the impact we have on families and the generations to come. Every day, our team works to empower, educate, and uplift those we serve, and it is our honor to be part of this shared mission.

We invite you to get to know our staff and volunteers and see the dedication that makes our community thrive.
