Florida Freedom Ride For Tuition Fairness

Right now nearly 6,000 Dreamers are facing the loss of their in-state tuition in Florida. These are students who have worked hard and contributed to their communities! We won’t let them stand alone- not now, not ever!


Inspired by the Freedom Rides of the Civil Rights Movement, Scholars & allies are on a 3-day 500 mile journey from Miami to Tallahassee to ensure our stories are heard and tell legislators our dream matters.


Here's how you can help.
