Immigrants Rising is partnering with the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office to better understand and strengthen support for AB 540 students, undocumented students, and students from mixed-status families across the California Community Colleges system.
We invite students to participate in an important survey that will help inform statewide recommendations to improve services, resources, and campus supports for undocumented students. Your experiences and perspectives are essential in helping us identify what is working well and where additional support is needed.

What to expect:
• Complete a 30-minute confidential survey.
• Share your experiences and perspectives on community-based organization (CBO) and California Community College partnerships, campus safety, and SB 98 protocols.
• All responses will remain confidential and will be reported only in aggregate. No personally identifying information will be shared.
You are eligible to participate if you:
• Are 18 years of age or older.
• Self-identify as an undocumented immigrant or a student from a mixed-status family, including individuals with no lawful status, DACA recipients, Temporary Protected Status (TPS), Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS), or other immigration circumstances.
• Are currently enrolled at a California Community College.

Your voice matters, and your participation will help shape future policies and practices that better support undocumented students throughout California’s community colleges.

Complete the survey by scanning the QR code or checking out our Bio.

It took more than 60 years for them to graduate.
It wasn’t because they were bad students.

In 1942, more than 450 Japanese American students were forced to leave the University of Washington after being sent to incarceration camps during World War II.

On May 18, 2008, the university finally awarded them honorary degrees.

Some returned in wheelchairs. Some returned with grandchildren. Some never lived long enough to see it happen.
