‘No child should have to go through this’: The lives of three siblings in Texas after their parents’ deportation
The teenagers are struggling with the stress of living without their parents. As their mother fights to return to the United States, they are preparing to go back to school on their own
Sarah Moreno, a 15-year-old girl, was traumatized by the deportation of her parents in Texas. Her family was separated when ICE agents pulled them from their car and deported her parents to Mexico. Sarah and her siblings are now struggling to live without their parents. One of her parents, Jessica Treviño, had DACA status, which protected her from deportation.
Treviño spent almost 90 days in detention but was deported anyway, without presenting her permit. She is currently in Mexico and cannot return to the United States. Sarah's mother feels helpless, as she misses her children and can't be with them.
