Over the years, Carolina (Founder of My Undocumented Life) has presented and facilitated dozens of workshops, webinars, research presentations, conversations, and conferences on a variety of topics aimed at supporting undocumented students. She is currently welcoming speaking engagement requests from schools and organizations for the 2026-2027 academic year. This includes, but is not limited to, presentations about the following topics:
- Recent changes in U.S. immigration policy and enforcement at the federal, state, and local level that affect undocumented students and their families.
- How schools can identify and address the needs of undocumented students.
- The educational experiences of undocumented students (in K-12, college, or graduate school) and recommendations for school personnel on how to best support them.
- Resources available to undocumented students to pursue their higher education.
- Insights from research based on more than 300 in-depth interviews with undocumented students, their families, and the school personnel who work directly with them. This includes conversations about students’ mental health, educational experiences, encounters with enforcement, and more.
Carolina draws on more than two decades of personal, advocacy, professional, and research experience in this field.
