Jairo Leon, the first director named for CSUSB’s Undocumented Student Success Center, plans to advocate, create and build on the programs and services available to undocumented students.
The funds will be used exclusively to support the implementation and enhancement of programming and services for undocumented students and their families to increase retention and graduation rates.
The lives of undocumented immigrants in the U.S. and the challenges they face will be the focus of the annual Education in Equity Dialogue on Tues., Nov. 7, at CSUSB, organized by the Doctorate in Educational Leadership program.
One of the highlights of the Nov. 5 event was the presentation by the Carvajal/Hale family, founders of Optima Family Services, who gave a $10,000 scholarship to CSUSB student Sam Martinez.
