What has happened to the legal services for unaccompanied migrant children in the U.S.?
The federal funding for legal services supporting unaccompanied migrant children has been completely and immediately suspended. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) previously funded nonprofits to provide legal counsel for these children who cross the U.S.-Mexico border without parents or legal guardians. These children are housed in shelters while immigration judges decide their cases and officials determine if they have suitable sponsors in the U.S. The primary concern among lawyers is that migrant children will now face immigration court proceedings without legal representation, leaving them vulnerable in a complex legal system.
