Abstract
Over four million US-born children living in households with at least one unauthorized immigrant parent are the unintended victims of intensified immigration enforcement. In an effort to address these disadvantages, many schools and school districts throughout the country have implemented “safe-zone” policies to limit their cooperation with immigration authorities, restrict agents' access to campuses, and provide resources for students and their immigrant families. Using data from a binational survey that collected information on children from mixed-status households, we document positive and significant correlations between safe-zone policies and children's externalizing, internalizing, and total difficulties scores, as well as their prosocial behaviors.
