This workshop is focused on the immigrant and refugee experience for children who can benefit from play therapy sessions. We start with a review of the history of immigration in the USA and how we got where we are today with stigmas towards immigration for specific groups. We delve into the current and correct terms to use, struggles immigrants and refugees face, and theories that can help us work with children and their families. We go through lots of play therapy tools and strategies we can use to work with immigrant children. We can create play therapy programming that is built with immigrants in mind, if we learn more about it.

Objectives
