Will not stop pushing for Documented Dreamers’ rights says Improve The Dream founder Dip Patel

Most people seem to assume that if somebody has been lawfully residing in America for long enough, they can eventually apply for citizenship. It’s far from true: Dip Patel

Documented Dreamers or immigrant youth who have grown up in the US as dependents of visa holders but are now facing the prospect of aging out of the immigration system are the focus of Improve The Dream, an organization founded by Illinois pharmacist Dip Patel. 

Since 2017, through Improve The Dream, Patel has advocated to permanently end aging out for the over 250,000 children of long-term visa holders in the United States. He discussed the importance of safeguarding Documented Dreamers and the steps his organization is taking to achieve this goal in an interview with New India Abroad.
