Who We Serve
Our program serves students who are undocumented immigrants as well as those who are notable allies of the undocumented community. An 鈥榰ndocumented immigrant鈥� is someone who is residing in the country without legal documentation. This includes people who: entered the U.S. without inspection, overstayed their legal status, have and do not have DACA, and those who are in the process of legalizing. Allies in our program have a strong commitment to supporting undocumented people--be this a close friend, partner, co-worker, or family member. To learn more about who is included in the term 鈥渦ndocumented,鈥� please review .

Confidentiality
Our team takes confidentiality seriously. When a student shares information with us, that stays between us and the student. We do this to protect our students, and to abide by federal and state laws that require the safe keeping of educational records. This means that we do not share our students鈥� immigration status nor their personally identifiable information (e.g., Mt. 91直播 ID numbers, home address, phone numbers, etc.) with third parties (e.g., extended family, non-profits, government agencies, etc.).
