DACA Funds of Knowledge: Testimonios of Access to and Success in Higher Education
Przymus, Steve Daniel; Malin, Karrabi
Journal of Hispanic Higher Education, v22 n1 p76-93 Jan 2023
Using "testimonios," we highlight six current university Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) students' funds of knowledge, or the lived experiences and culturally developed skills, specific to being DACA recipients, that these students leveraged in the past, currently lean on now for continued success, and learn what resources are lacking at university. Sharing these students' "DACA funds of knowledge," of navigating public education to successfully attend institutions of higher education, provides insight into equitable educational paths for those who follow.
