Conference Abstract
IM/MIGRANT WELL-BEING: A NEXUS FOR RESEARCH & POLICY
The 2025 Conference on Im/migrant Well-Being will focus on the lived experiences, challenges, and successes of immigrants within and across generations over time in the United States. Presentations will critically examine the intergenerational impacts of how United States immigration policies, such as Title 42, 鈥淩emain in Mexico鈥�/Migrant Protections Protocols, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention and surveillance, executive actions like the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, and other policies and programs shape the daily lives and well-being of immigrants and their families. By centering the voices and experiences of immigrant communities, this conference seeks to generate empirical work that promotes the humanity of immigrants and informs evidence-based policymaking at the local, state, and national level.
