I am finding myself in more scenarios in which families have migrated to the US. My use of interpreters has increased significantly as well. This course was a good reminder that I need to be considering the child's development and situation in a more holistic manner rather than just from a speech-language perspective.

Presentation did a good job with providing more general overview of migrant populations and their possible perspectives/challenges, while also giving more in-depth information on how SLPs specifically can serve this population in light of the cultural/linguistic issues that are inherent with migrant populations.

This presentation is extremely general and states information we already know. Define what forced migrant minors are. This CEU could have been written rather than a video presentation. It’s very general and does not give specific information which can be implemented by SLPs after obtaining this information. There’s conflicting information presented as well.

I worked with a family of a toddler/preschooler who migrated from North Africa a few years ago, I was not aware of the migration issues that may have contributed to their circumstance. I am extremely responsive to looking at the whole child and considering cultural and linguistic factors. In our area most immigrant/ forced migrant families come from Mexico South and Central America. I realize now that I need to consider the impact of trauma and experience based factors in a broader group of immigrant/ migrant cultures. Very helpful

The presenter read directly from the screen, therefore I could have read the powerpoint to complete this. I did not gain takeaways that are different from what I already know; to make an individualized plan for each student I work with. However, this did make me think about migrant families and what they endure.
