ICE Is Deporting Parents Without Letting Them Bring or Find Care for Their Kids

A report released Wednesday by the Women’s Refugee Commission (WRC) and Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) reveals that many parents, including dozens whom the groups interviewed at deportee reception centers in Honduras, have been forced to quickly leave their children in the “informal care” of friends, relatives, or even babysitters — many of whom are also vulnerable to deportation under the Trump administration — leaving them in precarious situations while traumatizing both parents and children.
