LatinaLista — Recent reports indicate that the swell of undocumented children is easing and that many of those who have arrived have either been reunited with long absent parents or deported back to the countries they fled. However, there are still thousands in the care of the American government.
Being denied access to the children, journalists can’t easily report on the individual stories of who these children are and their personal stories that drove them to make such a dangerous journey to the United States.
