Training History
In the spring of 2012, a team of UC Berkeley staff and students came together in support of undocumented students on our campus.
The team began meeting regularly to develop a campus training for staff and faculty, as well as an ally sticker project. “UndocuAlly” is a term the team adopted to refer to campus allies providing trained undocumented student support at Cal. With the support of funding from the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Equity & Inclusion and the former Learning + Organizational Development, the team developed and launched this project. The first UndocuAlly Training occurred in spring 2013. The plan was to offer a minimum of one training each semester. Staff/faculty members left this training with an understanding of the history, legislation and current/future realities of this student community. Below please find a directory of faculty and staff who have completed this training.
