Economic Mobility & Belonging for Undocumented Students
An estimated 100,000 undocumented students graduate from U.S. high schools each year and more than 400,000 are enrolled in postsecondary institutions across the U.S. This session will provide an overview of the unique barriers and opportunities facing these students in the current context. It will delve into the work of organizations, institutions, government agencies, etc., who are leading the charge in making economic belonging and opportunity available to all students regardless of immigration status.
