Dany celebrated a momentous anniversary this February: nine years since Justice for all Immigrants (JFAI) intervened, transforming her from a high school student facing uncertainty to a successful nurse and mother. Dany, who relocated from Honduras to the United States, encountered difficulties with her future during high school with her mother's deportation, which led to instability and frequent relocations. After being introduced by a local minister, Dany's fortune changed when she connected with JFAI, which provided her legal services through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
“Reach out to JFAI, an organization where the people are super nice and genuinely invested in your well-being,” she added.
Steering through challenges, including the absence of vital documents and fears of being shut out from educational and career aspirations, Dany found firm support in JFAI's legal assistance. JFAI’s services and ongoing communication provided a lifeline, turning problems into manageable steps towards hope. This support paved the way for Dany to complete her education, embark on a nursing career, and sustain her family. "I can now think about the future with a secure and safer feeling," she said. For those seeking similar assistance, Dany's advice is heartfelt and clear, “reach out to JFAI, an organization where the people are super nice and genuinely invested in your well-being,” she added.
Dany's story is a testament to the benefits of legal support in enhancing job prospects, living standards, and economic contributions among immigrants, serving as a source of hope for many.
