The July 2021 thematic issue of

**Health Affairs**takes an intensive look at the

****policy issues related to immigrants, borders, and health. Articles
describe current migration trends and supply new data analysis and
commentary on how policies can address disparities and ease the
disproportionate health burden borne by immigrants.

Immigrant Health: Evidence & Policy Issues
Tuesday, July 20, 2021, 1:30-3 pm (EDT)

Please join us on Tuesday, July 20, when

**Health Affairs** takes a closer look at the effects of recent US
immigration policy on care, coverage, and outcomes for immigrants in the
United States. Topics will include: how, in mixed status families,
noncitizen children face tougher health effects than their citizen
siblings; how immigration enforcement reduces use of health services
like Medicaid and SNAP; and how states and others are crafting policy
to restore that critical safety net.

Featuring (in alphabetical order):

Human Development and Social Policy; Director, Institute for Child,
