San Diego Mesa College held the grand opening of its new Dreamers Center on Tuesday, December 7, 2021. The resource center will be devoted to providing resources, support, and advocacy for students that identify as undocumented, AB540, Dreamer, or DACA. The Borderless Scholars program currently serves over 450 students, and the Dreamer Resource Center is designed to provide a safe and welcoming environment for students throughout their journey at Mesa College. Services provided include personal, career, and academic counseling; on-campus support services such as workshops and events; and community resources including free legal services.
"Mesa has been looking forward to opening this Center for a long time,” stated Dr. Pamela Luster, President of San Diego Mesa College. "This space was created by students for students; and as a proud Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI), we are excited to have a dedicated location to continue offering support for our undocumented, AB540, Dreamer, and DACA students."
