The vast majority of my friends were American. I just really felt American. Lisette went on to attend Harvard University. where she received numerous awards and participated in many extracurricular activities. She volunteered at the Harvard Immigration and Refugee Clinic. where she worked as an interpreter. Of course. because of her immigration status. Lisette wasnt eligible for any Federal financial assistance for college. Thanks to the DACA Program. which we are commemorating today. she has been able to work as a student supervisor at Harvard Kennedy School Library to help support herself and put herself through school. Just last month. Lisette graduated from Harvard with honors.
