Join the UndocuSpartan Student Resource Center (USRC) and other campus and community organizations in creating awareness around immigration during Immigrant Advocacy Days from April 22 to May 1. The USRC aims to inform and empower campus and community members by highlighting free and local events like legal services, presentations, lectures, and civic engagement. We will send daily emails during Immigrant Advocacy Days with event descriptions and organization highlights so keep an eye out for those! We will conclude Immigrant Advocacy Days with the San Jose May Day Rally and March.
If you have any questions and/or concerns, please contact us!
We are motivated students mobilizing to create a strong student support group for Undocumented students and their Allies.
Meetings are every Thursday at 6:30pm at the Martin Luther King Library, 5th Floor Cultural Heritage Center Program Room
