Kiara Alvarenga - 40 My Life as an Undocumented DREAMer

Episode Summary

Telling someone you are undocumented can be downright terrifying. As an undocumented individual, we live in constant fear of deportation, family separation, and also in fear of coming out as an undocumented immigrant to close friends and family! On this DACA series, I sit down with Kiara Alverenga, a young successful Honduran woman who is breaking the silence owning her narrative. For the first time, Kiara speaks up about her story growing up as an undocumented child in the US, obtaining DACA, and enduring so many experiences while living in South Carolina! I am so thankful for Kiara's honesty, transparency, and willingness to share her story!
