United Advocates for Immigrants & Refugees U.A.F.I.R United Advocates for Immigrants & Refugees

The Goal The goal of U.A.F.I.R is to Educate students on Immigrant and refugee rights to become more aware of the atmosphere that has surrounded the world of immigration. U.A.F.I.R also wants every undocumented student to reach post secondary education by providing resources to reach that milestone and better the future of American society. In recent months, immigrants have came under unjust prejudice and have been forced to act to better their futures.

What we do Resources Provide college access to undocumented students who are pursuing post secondary education Provide legal resources for Immigrants and refugees Provide workshops for human and immigration rights Provide open discussions Counselor help Action It is important to know your government and assess current events to keep yourself informed, any news is good new. You never know how news can affect you or someone you love Provide options to advocate and lobby for your cause. It is important to act instead of complain. UAFIR is dedicated to civic action.
