11.3 million is the estimated number of undocumented immigrants lived in the United States in 2018. Of these, about 3.6 million entered the U.S. before their 18th birthday.

This lesson will explore the origins of the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act (DREAM Act) and connect the story of Tereza Lee, the first DREAMer, and the current struggles of others like her against possible family separation and deportation.
