Mission and Purpose

Undocumented Resilient & Organized (URO) is an organization of undocumented and fellow students who can relate, commit and contribute to the following:

Building a community of support among undocumented students at NEIU.
Creating awareness about issues affecting undocumented students and students of mixed-status families. This includes educating administration, faculty, staff and students but also ourselves.
Mentoring undocumented high school students as they transition to higher education.
Building relationships among faculty, staff, administration, and other student organizations on and off campus.
Expanding financial resources available to undocumented students through: fundraisers, new scholarships, and other incentives

Northeastern Illinois University has begun to take some initiatives modeling some of URO's founding mission and purpose. Currently URO Team is reviewing and discussing new ways of addressing the immigration issue on campus. The Team soon will reveal its NEW mission and purpose, its new and more challenging vision for NEIU and Undocumented Students.
