TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF AND WHAT YOU DO.

“As an immigrant rights activist, I gather and share information with my community to help educate them about the current state of DACA, so they know what their options are. I am also studying herbalism and how plants can be used to heal us.”

TELL US WHY YOUR WORK MATTERS…

“These are very difficult and uncertain times for immigrants, and it is important that we stand strong and support each other. Through my work, I can help connect undocumented workers, with and without DACA, to needed resources.”

WHAT UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES DO DREAMERS BRING TO THEIR WORK?

“As an immigrant, I understand the struggles to get an education and have a meaningful livelihood. Through my own experiences, I can now be a resource to others who are experiencing hard times.
