Advocating for immigrant rights and higher opportunities for DREAMERS.

Built by and for Dreamers. Since 2009, we have been the central force for higher education access and the dignity of undocumented students.

The Arizona Dream Act Coalition is one of Arizona’s leading immigrant youth-led organizations.

Built by and for Dreamers, DACA recipients, immigrant families, and community allies. Since 2009, ADAC has been a central force in the fight for higher education access, immigrant rights, and the dignity of undocumented students across the state.

A Community Moving Forward Together.

Arizona has a long history of barriers that prevent immigrant youth from reaching their full potential. ADAC exists to open those doors. We elevate the voices of Dreamers, provide direct services that families rely on, and build community power through leadership development and civic engagement.

Our work is driven by lived experience, cultural understanding, and the belief that immigrant communities deserve opportunities to thrive.

Turning Hope Into Higher Education

See how Arizona’s youth are overcoming systemic barriers to become the nurses, teachers, and leaders our state needs.

I volunteer at ADAC because helping others reminds me that even small actions can create real change. I see how ADAC and its team have an impact on the community, and that’s what drove me to want to be a part of them.

It’s helped me build lasting connections with the staff. It’s opened the door for me to connect with people not just in Arizona, but across the country which has broadened my perspective and made the experience even more meaningful. I have also taken part in their study abroad programs in Mexico, Italy, and Peru. The programs have allowed me to reconnect with loved ones I hadn’t seen in over 20 years.

Volunteering with ADAC has given me the opportunity to develop my instinct for compassion, helping others, and love for my community.

I’ve joined them in protests and in teaching about the positive economic impact we DREAMERS have on the state and federal government. Thanks to ADAC, I’ve also had the opportunity to travel to my country of origin to reunite with family members I hadn’t seen in so long through their study abroad program. I’m thankful to ADAC for giving me the opportunity to collaborate and get involved.

I am incredibly grateful for the support I received from ADAC. Their study abroad program was truly life-changing for me. After 35 years, I was finally able to resolve my legal status thanks to their knowledgeable and dedicated team.

Although I am based in California, their team in Arizona guided me step-by-step through the entire Advance Parole process, ensuring everything was done correctly and giving me confidence through the process. Because of their help, I was able to obtain lawful entry into the United States and move forward with my immigration case. Most importantly, after returning under Advance Parole, I was able to apply for my permanent residency.

Thanks to the work and support of the Arizona Dream Act Coalition, I was able to learn about my roots and culture. Thanks to their Study Abroad program, I was able to visit my home country after 30 years. I am thankful for ADAC and this unforgettable experience.

I hope that like me, many other people can benefit from ADAC’s Study Abroad Program. Thanks to this program I was able to lawfully return to the U.S. and adjust my status. The hardest part was overcoming my fear. Beyond being an organization that helps DACA recipients, they are empathetic and reassure you that you are not alone and they support you through every step of the process.

My experience with ADAC’s Study Abroad program was wonderful. I am very grateful to ADAC’s team who helped make this possible. Being able to return to my homeland after 32 years was incredible. Thanks to this program, I was able to adjust my legal status.
