Children of migrant workers fulfill dream to go to college

Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/3zeF6Ch As the oldest of four children, Delia Pablo, 19, began taking care of her siblings at an early age. "Growing up, I really didn't get to read [stories],” said Delia, who changed diapers, made formula and got her siblings ready for bed by the time she was six years old. With her parents working long hours at a local mushroom farm, Delia said she was “more reading what I needed to read on the labels for the food I had to microwave.” Watching Delia struggle as a child, her mother, Eulalia Pablo, wanted something different for her daughter. “She had to grow up. She didn't grow up a kid. Our kids suffer for us not being around,” Pablo said. “We don't want to see our kids out there [in the fields] … we want better futures and better life for our kids.” That dream is coming true for her daughter. This year, Delia was the first in her family to graduate high school and enroll in college at Adams State University—a unique opportunity made possible with support from the Children Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP). Funded by the U.S. Department of Education and Office of Migrant Education, CAMP provides financial, academic, social, and emotional support to children of migrant, seasonal farmworkers during their first year of college.
