On January 1, 2010, four brave students from Florida – Felipe Matos, Gaby Pacheco, Carlos Roa, and Juan Rodriguez – left Miami to embark on a 1,500-mile march to our nation's capitol in support of the Dream Act and calling upon our nation’s leaders to ensure that young people like themselves, and all immigrants, have the chance to realize their potential and fully participate in society.

In the four months that have followed these courageous young leaders have shared their stories, met with community leaders in multiple cities, endured discrimination and hate as they take a stand on behalf of millions who suffer under our failed immigration system.

Inspired by the tenacity of these four DREAM Walkers the Hermanos of La Unidad Latina have committed to support the Trail of Dreams.  Committed to increasing the number of Latino students, faculty and staff in higher education, the Hermanos have joined the DREAM Walkers along the Trail of Dreams.  Please check back frequently for updates on La Unidad Latina's efforts to support the Trail of Dreams.
