Through KIND’s direct work with children and research it has been observed that returning migrant children often face stigma and discrimination in their communities. Returning children often have significant mental health needs, educational gaps, and, in the case of indigenous children, language and sometimes cultural loss. Without reintegration support, many children will contemplate remigration, fail to access, or prioritize educational opportunities, and struggle to adjust and manage their mental health, putting them at risk for a host of challenges in their families and communities as they transition to adulthood.
