US ‘lags behind’ majority of high-income countries in protecting migrant children, new study finds
According to this article on USA Today, by Steven Vargas
“Unlike almost three-quarters of high-income countries, the U.S. does not prohibit or limit the detention of accompanied asylum-seeking children, a study released on Wednesday finds.
The study by the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health’s WORLD Policy Analysis Center (WORLD) looked specifically at laws affecting asylum-seeking children — youth seeking protection from human rights violations in their home country — and migrant children — youth leaving their country for a variety of reasons such as economic opportunities, education or to join family.
According to their findings, the U.S. does not have legislation protecting accompanied migrant children.”
