Abstract

In this report, the author points out the fact that there is a significant number of Latino students who are undocumented. In many states, these students do not have access to college or financial aid. But it is not just access and financial aid. It is necessary to change the curriculum to make it culturally appropriate and create an educational environment that is nurturing and inclusive.
