Many immigrants are exposed to immigration court (IC) proceedings and their related policies either directly or indirectly. Although, little is known about the impac that immigration status, policy, and proceedings have on the mental health of immigrants, the body of literature is growing. This article explores how mental health may be impacted by factors such as fear of deportation and uncertainty regarding the future. We discuss risk factors, such as vilification of racial/ethnic groups, legal status, and detention; and protective factors, including religion, social support, economic stability, and linguistic proficiency. We conclude by addressing adequate training for mental health professionals working with non-citizen immigrants and recommend steps to becoming a competent professional in the context of ever-changing immigration policy.

移民身份、政策和诉讼程序与心理健康之间的关系

许多移民直接或间接地接触到移民法庭 (IC) 程序及其相关政策。尽管人们对移民身份、政策和诉讼程序对移民心理健康的影响知之甚少,但文献数量正在增长。本文探讨了心理健康如何受到诸如害怕被驱逐出境和对未来的不确定性等因素的影响。我们讨论风险因素,例如对种族/族裔群体的诽谤、法律地位和拘留;和保护因素,包括宗教、社会支持、经济稳定性和语言能力。最后,我们为与非公民移民打交道的心理健康专业人员提供了充分的培训,并建议在不断变化的移民政策背景下成为合格的专业人员的步骤。
