March Newsletter 📰

Hi John,

Spring is finally here! We're thrilled to share our newly released and upcoming resources.

Last week, we released a new guide providing recommendations to build stronger institutional support for UndocuEducators to thrive and persist while they play key roles in higher education. We highly encourage educators and staff members in colleges and universities to check it out and share it with their colleagues.

In addition, if you are supporting undocumented students through the CA Dream Act and AB 540 / SB 68 processes, we invite you to check out the following resources:

💻 AB 540/SB 68 Learning Labs for College Educators [April 8 and 15 | 10 – 11:30 a.m. PT]
Gain a clearer understanding of AB 540/SB 68 requirements and hands-on experience in untangling common challenges and developing an action plan to maximize student enrollment by streamlining the affidavit process. Participants must attend both April 8 and April 15 sessions.
📈 Promising Practices for Financial Aid Counselors: Increasing Award Rates for CA Dream Act
Use these promising practices for financial aid counselors to increase application and award rates for CA Dream Act on your campus.
