TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF AND WHAT YOU DO.
“As a DREAMer, I am helping my community beyond what I imagined. At my job in a private ambulatory surgery practice, we deal with patients who need procedures and surgeries done away from the hospital. Many of these patients are very sick and elderly. This job has confirmed my dreams to eventually become a physician’s assistant.”
TELL US WHY YOUR WORK MATTERS…
“Facilities such as mine have helped decrease hospital admissions and helped our community overcome diseases while preventing limited exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic.”
WHAT UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES DO DREAMERS BRING TO THEIR WORK?
”Many immigrants know about discrimination, but this pandemic does not discriminate. This is human versus biological disease; we must work together to overcome our obstacles so that we can resume our normal lives.”
