When the DACA protest ended, we organized, mobilized, and carpooled to seven different City Council meetings where resolutions opposing the border wall were the hot agenda item. About the Rio Grande Valley . The Rio Grande Valley is a region of small towns in South Texas with a unique cultural identity. Located along the Rio Grande River and the Gulf of Mexico, itâs home to almost 2 million people. The majority of the population is latino, of which 28,000 are DACA recipients. People from here tend to refer to themselves as being from âthe Valley,â rather than the specific tiny town named by a white settler.
Some of the findings of the survey indicate: â¢ A regular gender imbalance in this and similar surveys of DACA recipients. â¢ There is a large community of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) DACA recipients that face added barriers of discrimination due to their identities. â¢ DACA recipients live with families with a wide range of immigration statuses. â¢ Although DACA recipients have been able to get more jobs, a lot of people still have trouble making ends meet. â¢ DACA recipients take a prominent economic and social role in their family. â¢ After DACA, a large percentage of undocumented youth have been able to get new. and higher paying jobs, buy their first car, purchase health insurance, pursue educational. opportunities, and become more financially independent.
