Camino de Sueños: From Detroit to DC

by noel on November 29, 2017

Dear Familia, Since launching CCDA’s Camino de Sueños in Detroit on October 5th, 2017, I have been amazed at how powerfully I have sensed feelings of kinship and connectedness with others who are committed to walking with Dreamers until a new, clean Dream Act is passed by Congress. In [...]

DACA has been rescinded

by noel on September 5, 2017

Dear CCDA Familia, It is with deep sadness I share the news that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) has been repealed.

The Beautiful Diversity of God’s Familia

by noel on April 25, 2016

This past month I have become even more acutely aware of how diverse, complex, and amazing the human family really is.
