'Dreamers' policy may have reduced depression in eligible individuals

(Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health) Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and Massachusetts General Hospital researchers reported that the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program appears to have reduced depression among eligible undocumented immigrants, often referred to as 'Dreamers.' These findings come on the heels of ongoing debates around the future under the Trump Administration of immigration policies, including the DACA program, which provides renewable, temporary work permits to undocumented immigrants who arrived in the US as children.
