What ARIZONA DREAM ACT COALITION INC does

Arizona Dream Act Coalition Inc (ADAC) is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit headquartered at Suite 7, 1402 S Central Ave in Phoenix, Arizona, that provides direct immigration legal services, educational support, and advocacy for undocumented immigrant youth and their families in Arizona. ADAC delivers four core service lines: (i) immigration legal services including DACA renewals, residency renewals, citizenship assistance, and Advance Parole travel permits, offered in person at Saturday clinics and online for out-of-state recipients; (ii) the Study Abroad Program, which uses Advance Parole permits to enable DACA recipients to travel to Mexico, Ecuador, Italy, and Peru for cultural reconnection and legal-status adjustment; (iii) Sueños Migrantes (Migrant Dreams), a humanitarian-visa family reunification program for elderly parents (60+) in Mexico, co-run with Migrantes en Acción; and (iv) Family Safety & Preparedness programming for mixed-status households. The organization also runs a Youth Leadership Cohort and State Capitol advocacy training, and curates scholarship and resource content (TheDream.US, Los Diablos at ASU, Maricopa Community Colleges, Hispanic Scholarship Fund, UndocuHealth).

ADAC's business model is donation-funded and community-led. The primary revenue mechanisms are individual donations via Zelle (where 100% of contributions flow to mission with zero processing fees), foundation grants not specifically named in the source set, corporate and major-gift ACH/wire transfers, and a one-time $800 cash processing fee per family for the Sueños Migrantes visa service. Free or low-cost legal services are sustained through donations. Customer segments comprise DACA recipients and Dreamers, undocumented K-12 and college students, mixed-status immigrant families, elderly parents in Mexico seeking reunification, and community allies and volunteers. The organization reaches beneficiaries through a 15,000+ subscriber newsletter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Spanish-language press (Telemundo, Univision), mainstream Arizona outlets, DACA clinics, and direct community events; it is governed by a board led by President Adriana Cuevas and managed day-to-day by Executive Director Ana Toloza, with approximately 1-10 employees.

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA): California-based immigrant rights coalition offering legal services, education, and organizing. Directly comparable to ADAC's mission and integrated service-plus-advocacy model, though at significantly larger scale and in a different state.
• United We Dream: The largest immigrant youth-led network in the U.S., directly comparable to ADAC in mission, audience (DACA recipients and immigrant youth), and youth-led organizing model. Both organizations share the 'Undocumented and Unafraid' framing and operate youth leadership pipelines.
• Make the Road New York: Membership-led immigrant and working-class organization combining direct legal services, education, and advocacy. Directly comparable to ADAC in the integrated service-plus-advocacy model, though operating at much larger scale in New York.
• Living United for Change in Arizona (LUCHA): Arizona-based immigrant and working-class advocacy organization that co-organizes with ADAC (e.g., DACA anniversary events). Directly comparable as a community-led immigrant rights org in the same geography, with overlapping advocacy and direct-service work.
• Poder Latinx: Civic engagement organization for Latino communities that partners with ADAC on DACA anniversary advocacy. Directly comparable in mission (immigrant rights, civic participation) and youth-led organizing approach.
• CASA (Centro de los Derechos del Migrante): Mid-Atlantic immigrant advocacy and services organization serving mixed-status families. Directly comparable as a community-led immigrant services org with similar bilingual, multi-program structure (legal, education, advocacy).

Emerging players

• Define American: National immigrant rights narrative-change organization that shares ADAC's lived-experience storytelling approach and DACA youth focus, though operating primarily through media and culture rather than direct legal services.
• TheDream.US: The nation's largest college access program for Dreamers, providing full-tuition scholarships. While ADAC curates and refers students to TheDream.US, both organizations serve the same undocumented-student customer base around higher-education access.

Broad incumbents

• Hispanic Federation: National Latino advocacy and service umbrella organization that funds and partners with community-based groups serving similar populations to ADAC. Comparable as a broader, well-funded incumbent in the immigrant-services ecosystem.

Regional players

• Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition (CIRC): Colorado-based immigrant rights coalition with state-level advocacy and direct services. Highly comparable in structure and mission to ADAC, but operating in a different geography (Colorado vs. Arizona).
