Dreamers

Hello, and Welcome to Dreamers at ECU!

Our goal is to advocate and support Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) students, undocumented students, and students from undocumented families by providing access to resources through campus and community partner collaboration. We understand that no dream can become a reality without a fair opportunity. Dreamers at ECU is the safe space where students and their families can receive personalized help that will make those dreams a reality!

The Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act provides a pathway to citizenship for undocumented students who came to the United States with their families as minors. First introduced in 2001, the DREAM Act would help undocumented students work toward citizenship who came to the U.S. before the age of 16, have graduated from high school or have a GED, have good moral character, and no criminal record. NASFAA has long- supported the DREAM Act and the right for undocumented minors to find opportunity, education, and a future in the only home they’ve ever known.
