IDEAS AT UCLA
Improving Dreams, Equality, Access, and Success at UCLA
Since 2003, Improving Dreams Equality Access and Success at UCLA has been a trailblazer in the immigrant rights movement by giving a face and voice to the issues of immigrant youth on-campus, in the community, and across the nation. This organization hopes to inspire contemporary and future immigrant rights leaders at any institution to pursue a reform of the immigration system and ensure the holistic well being of the immigrant community.
