My Dreams Are Not Illegal - 68 - DACA Update

DACA is stroke down once again. While we were expecting this news, it's not easy to face the reality that the DACA Program could be taken away. While we can still continue to renew our DACA application, millions of eligible applicants are left out of the program. We know DACA is only temporary, and the fear and anxiety to be at risk of loosing our jobs, or be separated from our family becomes more real with every new decision. Check-in on your DACA friends, and let them know we are all here for each other. No matter what, we are better together and I trust in God that bigger and better things are coming for us.  Follow the Prickly Things Podcast Instagram: @thepricklythingspodcast [https://www.instagram.com/thepricklythingspodcast/?hl=en] Tik Tok: TPT Podcast Be a Guest on the Show!

Back in Limbo - 67 - Prepping for the Unknown Future of DACA

DACA is back in the courts! Last week, a hearing took place where we are once again left to await the fate of DACA.  This episode shares the story of Liz. As a student, it has never been easy for Liz to manage the ups and down of knowing that DACA can end at anytime. In fact, Liz was prepared to move back to Mexico and enroll at a Mexican University back in 2017 when the DACA program was threatened. This upcoming Thursday, tune in to hear the inspiring story of Liz as she tells how she was able to push through her fears of being undocumented and managed to earn a full scholarship to complete her degree in engineering.
