Trump’s ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy is traumatizing kids. Bring asylum seekers here to heal.

by Department of Psychiatry | Jan 6, 2020 School of Medicine
Opinion column by Steven Berkowitz, professor of psychiatry and the director of the Stress, Trauma, Adversity Research and Treatment Center at the CU School of Medicine, and co-author: “As these children and parents arrive at our doorstep seeking asylum, as is their legal right, it is wrong for this administration to knowingly place them in dangerous environments when safe alternatives exist and their presence in the United States has no negative impact on our society. It is our duty to protect them.” USA Today, Jan. 6, 2020
