From the United We Dream page. (click on photo to visit source).

A friend recently told me about this Ozarks at Large piece profiling the United We Dream confernece in Texas.  This piece, which aired last Wednesday  and was produced by Ozarks at Large intern Zessna Garcia, details  just a few of the diverse groups which support the DREAM Act, a federal bill which seeks to provide a path to citizenship for undocumented youth who were raised in the United States.

You can listen to the piece by clicking here.  

Don’t forget you can follow Ozarks at Large on Facebook.

In the coming days we’ll explore some of the groups mention in this piece who were represented at the conference.  For more on the DREAM Act and the conference:
