Keeping the Dream Alive: Resource Guide for Undocumented Students

NCLR designed this student-friendly resource handbook to help undocumented students better prepare for postsecondary education options and, in particular, a college degree.

The guide presents information on state-level initiatives which offer in-state tuition to undocumented students as well as information on the “Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act.” In addition, students will learn about college requirements, means of fundraising for college, and academic and extracurricular activities which pave the way to college.

The Loan Modification Scam Alert Campaign

Loan modification scams are proliferating at a rapid pace. Every day, scam artists prey on unsuspecting homeowners who are facing foreclosure. These homeowners are losing thousands of dollars and their homes—lured by the promise of loan modification help. To combat this issue, Congress asked NeighborWorks America® to launch a national public education campaign. The campaign will empower homeowners to protect themselves against loan modification scams, find trusted help and report illegal activity to authorities. NeighborWorks America is working with national, state and local partners on the ground and 235 community-based affiliates. Together, we will alert thousands of homeowners in hundreds of at-risk communities through real-life scam stories, fliers, postcards, e-cards, posters, print advertising, local PSAs, events, word of mouth and social media activity.

We need help from partners like you to reach homeowners in your area with our important information to:

• Alert them about scams
• Help them spot a scam before it’s too late
• Encourage them to report scammers to authorities
