City Tech students are covered under The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which means that whatever private information they share with you, or their peer mentors, cannot be shared with anyone else without obtaining written permission from them. However, because of the sensitive nature of immigration-related challenges, it is strongly suggested that whomever the student confides in, even with written permission, the teacher/mentor not share that information with ANYONE.
CUNY Central’s Office of Undocumented and Immigrant Student Programs has a list of resources, including names of three City Tech campus liaisons: https://www.cuny.edu/current-students/student-affairs/cuny-immigrant-student-success/
At City Tech Gabriella Collantes-Woods in the SEEK program is the immigration contact for undocumented students and Dreamers. Please refer students with questions/concerns regarding immigration to her. To best support our immigrant students, please read the information attached, generously provided by Lauri Aguirre (FYP), and have copies of the QR codes available to all students and peer mentors.
