Yatciri Cruz

Education Coordinator at CASA DE MARYLAND

As an immigrant herself, born in Mexico but growing up in the U.S, and DACA recipient, Yatciri decided she wanted to be able to share her knowledge and experiences while helping others in the process. She took the first step by becoming a member of CASA in 2017 and became involved in demanding justice and defending the immigrant community as a member of the Youth Committee . Has been a Paralegal in Immigration Law and now dedicates to helping youth and helping them succeed through the afterschool program, Mi Espacio.
