Popis: With an increase in migrant patients in the U.S. who are facing legal and health barriers, dermatologists can engage in opportunities to improve migrant health. These include: providing trauma-informed, culturally competent dermatologic care to migrants; partnering with human rights clinics to provide dermatologic consultations for asylum seekers with skin conditions or unique scars; and engaging with community organizations to collaborate and advocate for the health and well-being of migrants.
