Facing Our Future: Children in the Aftermath of Immigration Enforcement

This report examines the consequences of parental arrest, detention, and deportation on children in six locations across the country. The study investigates the effects on these children after their parents were arrested in work site raids, raids on their homes, or operations by local police officers. The report also addresses the effects on children in the days and weeks after parental arrests, in the intermediate and long term while parents were detained or contested their deportation, and in some cases, after parents were deported.
