The UCC Mission Statement
The Skyline College Undocumented Community Center is committed to increasing engagement and awareness surrounding issues that impact the undocumented community by building leadership skills, promoting social justice, and advocating for access and equity within higher education.
Our goal is to empower the undocumented community by providing a safe space, fostering a support network, and removing barriers. Additionally, we strive to create equitable access to resources in order to support an informed and involved community that is capable of self-advocacy.

The San Mateo County Community College District affirms under the California Constituion that all students, faculty, and staff—regardless of immigration status— have a right to privacy and the inalienable right to attend campuses which are safe, secure and peaceful. The California Supreme Court has affirmed that an immigrant student’s right to an equal educational opportunity is “a vitally important right in our society.” Protections are expressly codified in California law to assure educational access for all, regardless of a student’s immigration status.
