She graduated from high school more determined than ever to
pursue her vision of how she could contribute to the community, and she
has contributed. She enrolled and put herself through the firefighting
and paramedic program at her local community college, and now she has
made a career for herself as an emergency medical technician, an EMT. Every day, she is working literally to save lives, and we are
threatening to kick her out of the country--the only country she has
ever known. Diana said a few years back when the DACA Program was first being
discussed:
America is my home. This is the place I love, where
everyone and everything I know is. I know nothing outside the
United States.
