As-Salamu ´alaykum,

Most Masajid keep records of how many people said their Shahada there. However, almost none of the Masajid keep track of the converts, they don't support them, don't assist in nurturing their new found Iman. For many, if not most converts, rifts are created between them and their surroundings, and it is our responsibility as an Ummah to take care of, and support each other, physically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually. Due to the lack of such support and follow-up, many converts never get to embrace Islam in its fullness, with all that it has to offer, and many, unfortunately, leave Islam altogether within the first year.

wassalam
