Happy Monday, John!

We hope you had a wonderful weekend. Our Supporting Black Undocumented Students through Higher Education webinar will be tomorrow at 1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET. Here's how you can support our efforts to uplift Black undocumented students even before the webinar begins:

1. Be sure to RSVP for the webinar.

2. Forward this email to at least 3 of your colleagues who can benefit from attending this webinar. (Here's a social toolkit if you want to promote this webinar throughout your network.)

3. If you can't attend the webinar, you can check out the resource here.

As always, we're grateful to your support of all undocumented students achieving their fullest potentials.

Come join us for our Supporting Black Undocumented Students Through Higher Education webinar!

Hey John!
We’re Shirleen Achieng and Eva-Vera Burns, Higher Education Program Participants at Immigrants Rising.

As part of our program, we developed a guide to help educators provide effective support for Black undocumented students. Drawn from research and experiences of directly impacted individuals, our goal is to create opportunities for Black undocumented students to thrive in institutions that were not made for us.

We’re thrilled to share our findings and recommendations with the Immigrants Rising community on Tuesday, April 19 at 1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET.

What are some structural obstacles that hinder us from being able to succeed? What can educators, administrators, and institutions do to create a culturally competent environment to support equitable access? Our hope is that this webinar and the accompanying resource will help spark these changes in your institutions.

Supporting Black Undocumented Students Through Higher Education

Tuesday, April 19, 2022
1 p.m. PT / 4 p.m. ET

This is only the first of many steps that it will take to overcome institutional barriers that pervade higher education for Black undocumented students. But taking this first step will set you and your institution to succeed. Let’s build together.

Thanks for all you do,
Shirleen & Eva
