Immigrant Family Article Analysis

On my search on immigrant families I came across an article that I found very interesting. The name of the article is The 7 Biggest Challenges Facing Refugees and Immigrants in the US; here is the link if you want to take a look at it https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/the-7-biggest-challenges-facing-refugees-and-immig/. I found the article interesting because it explains the main challenges immigrants face in a way that’s easy to understand. I am first generation in the United States so I am very passionate about this topic, and I know that this article could give good information to those who are looking to learn more. Not only that but the article mentions a lot of the same things the book does, for example both the article and the
book talk about language barrier, poor housing, and lack of resources. Of course there are some important things that are in the book that the article doesn’t mention like the fear of deportation. I think as human services professionals knowing all of these things is extremely important. We have to know that immigrants families sometimes don’t seek help because of they don’t know what resources are available to them; they don’t speak English, or it taboo to seek help in their culture. If and once they seek help its still super important to be informed about the challenges that they face to best help them and be culturally competent.
