    On June 20, 2014, the University of Washington, in collaboration with other institutions of higher education and community organizations, hosted the HB 1079 Summit:\u00a0A Decade of Dreaming<\/em> at the Samuel E. Kelly Ethnic Cultural Center. It was during this summit that Leadership Without Borders (LWB) was unveiled to the community as a space dedicated to provide resources and support for undocumented students\u2019 leadership development.<\/p>\n

    The establishment of LWB, the first of its kind at a 4-year public institution in the Pacific Northwest, marked a milestone in advancing the pathways of undocumented students in higher education and beyond. The development of LWB is the result of the collaborative efforts of the Kelly ECC\u2019s Director, Magdalena Fonseca and Former Director, Marisa Herrera, in addition to the contributions of other staff, students, alumni, and community organizations, who have been providing support, guidance, and resources for undocumented students for over 15 years.<\/p>\n
