Help AZ Dreamers Pay for DACA

Grassroots organizations including: Aliento, CAIR-AZ, Center for Neighborhood Leadership, Mi Familia Vota, Trans Queer Pueblo, and Undocumented Students for Education Equity have come together to help students with the renewal process. For many undocumented organizers, this includes financial support. Each DACA renewal costs $495 to file with Immigration Services. That filing fee cannot be waived.  DACA recipients only have until October 5, 2017 to file a renewal.

Puente Arizona
