Breakout 2: What is the California Dream Act Application? (10 minutes) 4 Directions: Undocumented/AB540 students can complete the California Dream Act Application to qualify for state- funded federal aid. You have 5 minutes to complete “The California Dream Act Application” handout. Spend the remaining time, about 2-3 minutes, discussing the “Common Dream Act Application Questions” handout.

Reflect and Review (2 minutes) 5 Let’s take 1-2 minutes to debrief around what you learned today and how to you apply some of this information to you life. What information resonated with you about today’s workshop? What information was new to you? What information was most helpful to learn about? Why? What knowledge can you pass on or share with family members?
