From the Diversity Interest Group and the Board of Directors of the Institute of Contemporary Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis
We condemn the inhumane immigration practices of the United States government. These practices result in irreparable harm to people who desperately need a safe haven and who risk death to find one. Tearing children from their parents is cruel and creates family trauma that lasts far beyond the first generation. Such exponential emotional damage should not be our legacy to the future. The dehumanizing current practices are causing distress and fear to many of our members, our patients, and our professional and personal communities. We oppose cruelty toward all people, including migrants, refugees and asylum seekers.
