USEP was founded at the University of California, Irvine in 2015 as a collaborative effort among undocumented and allied undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty. It continues as an active collaboration that now extends beyond our own campus. It also aims to support the professional development of emerging undergraduate and graduate scholar-activists. We hope that our research helps others in their efforts to create more equitable educational experiences for undocumented students. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1544591860959-4XKTD2R51SG3B28IGKFY/image-asset.jpeg Home - Our Findings We aim to use our research findings to inform institutional policy and practice.

Drawing on focus groups and interviews with undocumented students attending the University of California, we find that institutional policies work alongside state and local efforts to mediate the consequences of illegality for undocumented students. Although federal policies contribute to persistent barriers to academic engagement and professional development, we show that universities can intervene to improve educational experiences and opportunities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1544560771577-AD4HKQDWRFBM3C67A3E9/image-asset.jpeg Journal Articles - Deconstructing Immigrant Illegality: A Mixed-Methods Investigation of Stress and Health Among Undocumented College Students The mere state of being undocumented is viewed as a general stressor, without considering actual levels of stress or identifying dimensions of documentation status that contribute to overall stress levels. Drawing on surveys and interviews with undocumented students at the University of California, we uncover the everyday manifestations of four dimensions of immigrant “illegality”: academic concerns, future concerns, financial concerns, and deportation concerns, and their association with reported stress levels and self-rated health. https://www.undocequity.com/findings-1 daily 0.75 2020-12-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1607581953509-O5VLNRMVI0OLNHYJOS1C/image-asset.jpeg Findings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1607617023415-IP0YMIZD19EH75F8NVN2/image-asset.jpeg Findings https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1607616682803-BHDIC6DELNVJTN9SB2LD/image-asset.jpeg Findings https://www.undocequity.com/rewriting-migration-stories daily 0.75 2024-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/4e1c3046-cfcf-4795-966f-057ee3fcf93f/53687641334_5aa308afab_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories Opening https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/2b1c9336-037d-442e-8a97-38204d2bbe5d/53687500913_c3c9099c98_o+%281%29.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/659acab0-47f1-409c-ba95-2464c8e097f2/IMG_2366.PNG (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Closing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/90a8c936-0795-40fa-ae80-cddfaf781c55/53687491773_548be13739_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/eedc7900-078e-4ed0-8663-e0d75e5bfeb9/53686410022_410e095985_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Identity https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/9a2747b9-146d-455b-96f3-11b7378c4cb6/53686404987_aa696cd338_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Returning to Mexico https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1716694835428-IL5FQ9GW4GLEQ2IAH7BB/53687488328_5a4b0da97b_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Healing https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1716694867963-2VMUQZ8YOTQOH3N9H2F4/53687737170_b96ccfec00_o.jpg (Re)writing Migration Stories - Make it stand out Borders https://www.undocequity.com/theme-home daily 0.75 2025-05-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/4aa17b8c-6d55-417b-87a8-1e2732f7166a/53687500913_c3c9099c98_o+%282%29.jpg Theme Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1747172818892-73DC7TU351NEZZEE42NK/Ven+a+celebrar+con+nosotros+de+un+festival+lleno+de+tradicio%CC%81n+en+memoria+de+los+difuntos+%281%29.png Theme Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1747172819061-2VVUDM95VGIEF4HY758I/Ven+a+celebrar+con+nosotros+de+un+festival+lleno+de+tradicio%CC%81n+en+memoria+de+los+difuntos+%282%29.png Theme Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1747172821069-HUTJFAWNQTTVMHGUZERF/Ven+a+celebrar+con+nosotros+de+un+festival+lleno+de+tradicio%CC%81n+en+memoria+de+los+difuntos.jpg Theme Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1747172822075-YUK3N2ER2Q0X14C6139Q/Ven+a+celebrar+con+nosotros+de+un+festival+lleno+de+tradicio%CC%81n+en+memoria+de+los+difuntos.png Theme Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1717997854723-GSXHK3VUEB0SQKC1JMKJ/Screen+Shot+2024-06-09+at+10.37.10+PM.png Theme Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1717996048220-20GNYR4764039OHRULXN/Screen+Shot+2024-06-09+at+10.04.12+PM.png Theme Home The table is set up to resemble a typical family dinner table.

The night sky and the day sky are parallels to one another. Each side contains art and poems by students and participants. They comment and discuss their dual identities and relationships to respective forms of belonging in the countries. The placement of the middle was decided to implement this idea of the geographical boundaries and reimagine it as a point of connection between the two panels, rather than division. It is the complete zine, which was created by Baruck, and was a form to reclaim certain narratives of the border, hopefully asserting identities that move beyond these confinements. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5aea8933372b96f1537d0178/1718001140059-P4AH68PMO5JFTK4KYT43/Screen+Shot+2024-06-09+at+11.32.13+PM.png Theme Borders The left side of the panel exemplifies the city-like features throughout different parts of the United States.
