Did you know that over 26,000 healthcare professionals and many thousands of food production workers and teachers are DACA recipients? We NEED them and they NEED our respect – and legal status. PLEASE, take 10 seconds and submit a public comment supporting DACA soon. We must make their futures stable, and stop allowing the government to continue to delay the ability for these adults, who were brought here as children, to have a path toward a legal, permanent status. here 

Additional advocacy

The center empowers individuals to be advocates for themselves and their families and assists them in bettering their lives in an variety of ways. Staff and volunteers take time to get to know everyone individually and learn about people’s goals informally, in addition to learning about their formal educational or career goals.
