- In the span of nine months, Berenice lost her job, her place in graduate school and the woman who raised her.
Her grandmother’s death was the most crushing blow.
“For me, that was life-changing,” she said. “I had to spend time with her.”
But instead of being able to focus on saying goodbye, Berenice found herself consumed by something else: the fight to maintain her legal status.
“I had to put a stop to my grief.”

- We spoke to Adolfo in May, five months after he submitted his renewal application. He lost his job due to the lapse and was scared to even visit his family on California’s Central Coast, concerned he could be pulled over by authorities.
“I think in a way it kind of feels like I was being gaslit growing up,” he said. “I was kind of told ... if you want to be better or be somebody you just have to put in the work. And now it’s not like that.”
