As a YSDA member, you'd typically attend general body meetings (GBMs), protests, action events, social events, etc. But you can also become a member of one of our committees for increased involvement! Tasks and priorities vary committee to committee, but they all work together towards a chapter-wide campaign. Explore our committees below!
As part of YDSA National's Sanctuary Campus Campaign, the UF YDSA Chapter is organizing a campaign against immigration enforcement on campus.
After the sudden and unjust deportation of UF International Student Felipe Zapata Vasquez last Spring, it became clear that ICE is a threat to student life, especially as UFPD voluntarily signed a 287(g) agreement soon after.
Our campaign demands that UFPD end its 287(g) agreement, and that UF admin provides services to protect its international and immigrant students. Currently we are petitioning admin with a list of demands, viewable below on our petition website.
