Press Release

Response to Nabil El-Ghoroury regarding the treatment of children and families in the custody of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Letter to The Honorable Kevin K. McAleenan, Acting Secretary of Homeland Security from Nabil El-Ghoroury, PhD, CAE regarding the continued practice of separating children from their parents at the U.S. border.

Mental health experts at CAMFT appeal to the current administration to end the policy of separating children from their families immediately and to allocate more resources to reunite children and families who have been torn apart by the United States government.

CAMFT recommends anyone having difficulty coping with a tragic event is to seek help with a therapist. Marriage and Family Therapists practice early crisis intervention and brief focused psychotherapy to resolve problems and reduce symptoms quickly.

The Department of Health and Human Services has proposed a substantial change in the definition of gender, limiting gender to sex assigned at birth.

The parent-child separation at the U.S.- Mexico border has devastated many refugee and immigrant families and alarmed many mental health professionals.

Families who are fleeing violence may have already experienced substantial traumas on their way to the United States. Parent-child separations like this may worsen the suffering for both the children and the parents,” said Nabil El-Ghoroury, PhD, Executive Director of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT).
