The Trump administration has made significant cuts to legal assistance programs for unaccompanied migrant children traveling alone, leaving many vulnerable as they face immigration courts without legal representation. The administration has terminated contracts that provided essential legal aid, prompting concerns from advocacy groups about the implications for these minors who may now have to navigate the complexities of the legal system on their own. Organizations in various regions, including Charlotte and El Paso, report that federal funding cuts have threatened their ability to offer support services, further endangering the rights and protections of migrant children.
