This summit is intended for students and recent alumni of Catholic colleges and universities who are undocumented, DACAmented or come from mixed-status families. Participants will arrive Friday afternoon\/evening, and departures will be Monday morning\/mid-afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>The Undocu Network and the Undocu Network Summit are safe spaces for members of our undocumented community in Jesuit and Catholic higher education. Our members represent a wide variety of people from various races, ethnicities, religious groups and social and class groups. Undocumentedness is not a monolith, and no single story, face, language or name encapsulates the entirety of the undocumented experience. For that reason, we invite everyone who applies to attend the summit to consider their own story and to be open to the stories of others.<\/p>\n<p>ISN is asking institutions sending students to help contribute to cover the costs of this retreat. The cost of the summit\u2014including lodging, food and transportation between O&#8217;Hare International Airport and the retreat center\u2014is<strong> $50\/student for UDM students.<\/strong> The actual cost is higher, but ISN provides funding to allow this low registration cost.<\/p>\n<h6>What will be provided by ISN for participants:<\/h6>\n<ul>\n<li>Housing for the summit (each participant will have their own room)<\/li>\n<li>Meals beginning with dinner on Friday through breakfast on Monday<\/li>\n<li>Transportation from airport (follow-up information will be provided)<\/li>\n<li>Community and activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h6>Support NEEDED from your campus:<\/h6>\n<ul>\n<li>Transportation to and from Chicago (plane\/train ticket, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Reach out to UDM Minister Sammy Eckrich about receiving a<strong> transportation scholarship<\/strong> to attend.
