Abstract
The American Academy of Pediatrics Council on Community Pediatrics Immigrant Health Special Interest Group consists of 300 members and works to advance pediatric practice and advocacy for diverse immigrant children. Members share practice tools and strategies, and they advocate for the health and well-being of all immigrant children in a number of ways, including direct patient care, public speaking, asylum evaluations, writing op eds, and social media campaigns. This article includes reflections from 9 members of the group on their experiences around the country with caring for the health of vulnerable immigrant children and families. (The views expressed in the article are their own and do not necessarily reflect the policy or opinions of the AAP.) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
