Abstract

The article reports on the challenges facing undocumented immigrant children in accessing health care services in the U.S. According to Protecting Immigrant Families director Adriana Cardena, the lack of access forces parents to rely on over-the-counter-medications to treat their children. Also mentioned are the alternatives to access care like federally qualified community health centers, public hospitals and migrant health centers.
