Resources for Dreamers
Dreamers
We use the term Dreamers to identify undocumented students who may or may not hold DACA Status-Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals.
Current State of DACA
On June, 18, 2020, the Supreme Court ruled the administration could not proceed with the plan to discontinue the DACA program.
How We Help Students
Your success is dependent upon creating a campus community where all students feel they are welcome, safe, and that they belong at UTA. We are dedicating resources to educate and train faculty, staff, and students on how to effectively support our Dreamers so they may be successful during their time at UTA and beyond.
Dreamers Council
The Dreamers Council includes faculty and staff from around campus who will be trained advocates and create a support network for students. Dreamers Council Members can be contacted directly by students, staff, and faculty to answer questions and provide support for students.
Programs and Events
The Dreamers Council will recommend workshops, programs and events to be available for students throughout the year. Programs will be posted on the Cultural Engagement and Social Change website. While campus is on limited operations, all Dreamers events will be hosted virtually.
