Dear John,

An estimated 250,000 children of legal immigrants age out of their parents’ visa status at age 21 and must self-deport if they can’t find other ways to stay. Currently, there is no clear path toward permanent legal status, so young people must scramble for temporary solutions – or part from their families and the only home most have ever known.
What happens when parents are recruited to bolster U.S. companies, raise their children here, but have no way to secure their future? What's the cost to these families and our society when we kick out American-raised young people just as they are ready to enter the workforce, give back, and enter adulthood?
Join the Council for a discussion [[link removed]] with one such family.

Fedora Castelino grew up in the U.S. and is a pre-med student studying at the University of North Carolina and Duke University. She wants to serve in the Army and work as a physician. But at 20, she faces self-deportation in a matter of months. She will be joined by her father, Clifford Castelino, who was recruited by a U.S. company, moved his family to America when Fedora was five, and now must wrestle with the consequences of an obscure policy that may send his daughter away from her family and home.
The panel will also be joined by Dip Patel, who also immigrated to the U.S. thanks to a parent’s temporary work visa. Patel is the founder of Improve the Dream, a youth-led nonprofit advocating for the children of legal immigrants.
