Episode 19: Kate Clark, on Defending the Rights of Migrant Children and Families

UNITE for Children

Every child, regardless of borders, needs to be safe and protected — but for migrant children seeking asylum in the U.S., a new policy is now putting their lives at risk. The Migrant Protection Protocol (MPP), commonly referred to as “Remain in Mexico,” forces asylum-seeking families and even children to return to dangerous areas in Mexico to await their asylum court dates. This week, our own Eitan Peled talks with Kate Clark, Senior Director of Jewish Family Service of San Diego's Immigration Services, to talk about her work protecting children's rights, and why we all must urge lawmakers to rescind MPP.
