Re: [migrant_health_research] Immigation/Migration and Health/Medical Care

Dr. Garcia:

For the last five years, the Hearing Head Start ECHO Project (http://www.infanthearing.org/earlychildhood/index.html) has been researching the effectiveness of establishing hearing screening protocols within Early Head Start Centers (children from birth to three), many of whom are children from migrant families.  While our research does not focus on immigration policies, it does provide information on the efficacy of providing hearing screening services to migrant and other children enrolled in Early Head Start Programs.

If you are interested in some of the articles we've published, please let me know.  My contact information is below.

Sincerely,

 - Jan Buhrmann

Subject: [migrant_health_research] Immigation/Migration and Health/Medical Care

I would like to know if anyone knows of any recent or past studies on
the affects of immigration policies on the use of health and medical
care services by unauthorized to work migrant and immigrant workers. I
suspect that recent immigration policing (e.g., raids, incarcerations,
and deportations) has forced these workers to shy away, more than
before, from participating in health programs or seeking medical care.
