Check out the HEP programs in America.If you are illegal you can stay on college campus for 8 weeks,free of charge to you and get your GED in Spanish.It's Federally Funded only costing the taxpayers 7-10 thousand dollars for your stay.If you have TB you can still go ,expose students,and staff and get your medications paid for by New York State.If you can't pass the test and you need a place to stay it's okay.If the staff does't speak Spanish they lose their job.This story has a thousand legs and not one agency cares.All these years I thought there were laws.
