In this episode, Dr. Judith Flores and Dr. Chanelle Diaz examine the health inequities facing immigrant communities, from clinic settings to detention centers. They discuss the limits of cultural competence, the importance of partnering with immigrant families, and the harsh conditions and medical neglect documented in detention facilities. The conversation also highlights the impact of enforcement on children, the financial incentives driving detention expansion, and the vital role clinicians can play in documenting neglect and advocating for immigrant health and justice.
