6th Annual DACA Survey: The Center for American Progress; the U.S. Immigration Policy Center at the University of California, San Diego; United We Dream; and the National Immigration Law Center have launched the sixth annual survey of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients. Each year, our survey has revealed the profound impact that the program has had on the lives of recipients and their families, and informed policymakers, advocates and decision makers about the many benefits of the program. This year’s survey will take a closer look at the potential harms DACA recipients could face if the program is terminated.
