As a result of her work in immigration law and her desire to help create a richer and more inclusive environment for these individuals, Ms. Cockerham is proud to sponsor the April Cockerham DREAM Act Scholarship. The scholarship will award $500 to a student who is enrolled in any post-secondary institution by May 1, 2016. Some requirements for the scholarship include a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0, and a 700-word essay or statement that considers current immigration conditions and reforms in the United States, and offers at least two concrete ways that these conditions might be improved.
