The Making of a Dream: How a Group of Young Undocumented Immigrants Helped Change What It Means to Be American

We often call them DREAMers: young people who were brought or sent to the United States as children. They attend our local schools; work jobs that contribute to our economy. Some apply to attend universities here, only to discover their immigration status when the time comes to fill out the paperwork.
