Description
Psychosocial Experiences and Adjustment of Migrants: Coming to the USA explores the emotional experiences of migrants seeking to come to America, including psychological sequelae of such relocation from one’s home country to another country.
This book is divided into three main parts. The first introduces the reader to the foundational principles of migration.
Next, the chapter authors review individuals and families who come to the United States through "orderly" migration, profiling the experiences of immigrants from various countries and regions.
The next set of chapters discuss "forced" migration, examining the relative impact of social and legal challenges and the psychological impact.
The book wraps up with research, advocacy and mental health and social services options for migrants.
