BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:
California has one of the largest undocumented student populations in the nation and while there’s plenty of resources available for undocumented students. Sometimes though, the amount of information can be overwhelming.
Linda Vazquez, Assistant Vice Chancellor for State and Federal Relations for California Community Colleges, said over the years as questions rose regarding the future of DACA, many young undocumented students reacted by wanting to stay quiet. That’s why CCCO began undocumented student week of action. Now in its seventh year, the theme is Creating Belonging for Undocumented Students.
Bakersfield College supplying support for the more than 1,000 undocumented students on campus, kicking off immigration clinics in 2020 and inviting the whole community to take part in creating an environment of inclusion. This week, BC is hosting several seminars from Tuesday through Friday.
