Immigration Ain't Easy Ep. 4: Cynthia Magallanes, From DACA to US Citizen
Cynthia Magallanes is a survivor. Plain and simple. She was brought into the U.S. as a four-year-old. Cynthia went from being an undocumented child to gaining DACA status and then her green card and, ultimately, U.S. citizenship. She became a naturalized citizen on June 14, 2024. Cynthia uses her own experience with childhood sexual abuse to help empower other women and children who have been sexually abused, exploited or trafficked. She has dedicated her life's work to helping victims heal.
In April, 2022, she published The Princess Who Forgot Her Name, a children's book to help children heal after trauma. Cynthia's story is inspiring and demonstrates what one can do when given the opportunity, such as DACA, and a platform in the United States.
