Florida New Americans : Become A Citizen

I Florida Irrmigrant Coal iti on

FLlC, a member of the National Partnership for New Americans, launched its first citizenship program in the sunshine state in January 2012, aiming to provide opportunities of full integration for Florida 's largest immigrant communities.

Do I qualify for citizenship? Here are some of the requirements to apply for

citizenship:

• If you have been a legal permanent resident (with a green

card) for at least 5 years.

• If you are married to a U.S. citizen and have been a legal

permanent resident for at least 3 years.

• If you are in the military, or if your spouse or parents are in

the military.

• If any of your parents is a U.S. citizen . Why do vve have clinics? Florida is home to 1.2 million Legal

Permanent Residents (LPRs) and 710,000 vvere eligible for

Citizenship by 2010. However, only 87 ,000 LPRs naturalized

in 2011 . The same happens nationwide, 'NIlere out of the 8

million LPRs 'NIlo vvere eligible to naturalize in that same

year, sadly less than 1 million did.

Our goal is to advance immigrant rights and create active citizenship among New Americans in order to achieve a vibrant, just, and welcoming democracy for all. FLiC hopes to increase these numbers and fulfill this goal with the

Florida New Americans program within South Florida's

Haitian and Latino communities and seeks to expand

throughout the state. http://fi oridairTll1'igrant.org /our-'MlrWcitizenship/become-a-citi zerV

Rafael Saldana: El decano primerizo d

fac'ultad denegocios del MiamiDade

College _. - . _. . _.

I Miami Dade College, una de las instituc iones mas emblematicas de la Florida y uno de los centros de educaci6n superior de mayor recono­ cimiento en los' Estados Unidos, nom ­ bro recientemente a su nuevo decano de la Facultad de Negocios.

E

Para sorpresa de muchos, el elegido no fue un academico de renombre, sino una de las principales personalidades de la industria de la banca en Miami: Rafael Saldana; reconocido veterano banquero y lider de negocios comunitarios, quien ocupa el cargo desde' el pasado mes de noviembre. Saldana llega el MDC con una amplia experiencia en banca y administraci6n. Recientemente, se desempen6 como presidente y director ejecutivo de Ba­ nesco USA . Ademas, fue presidente y director de operaciones de RG Crown Bank; vicepresidente ejecutivo y direc­ tor comercial del Banco Santander, y director comercial de mercadotecnia y analitica de Capital One. Saldana es Licenciado en Economia de la Universidad de Puerto Rico, y osten ­ ta una Maestria con especialitaci6n en Contabilidad, Finanzas, Operaciones y Relaciones Industriales de la Facultad de Postgrados J.L. Kellogg de Gerencia de Northwestern University, y ha realizado programas de postgrado ejecutivo en las universidades Duke, Yale, California­ Berkley y Chicago.

Rafael Saldana "He estado en la banca toda mi vida. Comence a los 17 anos, reconciliando hipotecas FHA en m icrofichas (que ya no existen). Ahi se me quedo la vista y a eso Ie debe los anteojos. Pero ademas de la banca siempre he tenido una pasion por la educaci6n , heredada de m i. abuela, una maestra de escuel a de un pueblo pequeno en Puerto Rico. Cuando mi abuela caminaba por la calle, la saludaban tres generaciones de alum­ nos': recuerda Saldana, en entrevista con

MiamiDiario.com . Su nutrida hoja de vida tambien 10 regis­ tra como miembro del Comite Ejecutivo de la Junta de la Camara de Comercio del Gran Miami, donde tambien ocup6 el cargo de presidente del Comite de Educacion, a la vez que es miembro de las juntas directivas de Miami Founda­ tion y de la Asociacion Comercial In ­ dustria
del Sur de la Florida. Titulo tras titulo, Saldana es uno de los mejores ejemplos de como un latinoamericano se puede poslclonar con exito en las industrias mas competi­ tivas -y exigentes de los Estados Unidos.

lPor que entonces tomo la decisi6n de cambiar la banca por las aulas?

Saldana encontr6 en la Camara de Co­ mercio de Miami un referente para involucrarse con la comunidad y, por ende, con la academia. Como presidente del comite de educacion de la Camara de Comercio del Gran Miami se rela­ ciono con lideres de instituciones como el MDC, Florida International Univer­ sity, Barry University y St. Thomas Uni­ versity. "Ademas, cuando mi hijo vino a Miami estudio en el MDC y tuvo una ex­ periencia excelente. En tan solo un ano termino su AA (Associate of Arts) en contabilidad, y posteriormente ingreso a Columbia, en Nueva York. Mi hijo
