Federal immigration crackdowns in 2026 caused immigrant families to avoid medical care, spurring clinics to launch home visits to maintain access.
In 2026, intensified federal immigration enforcement in Minnesota triggered widespread fear among immigrant families, leading to a sharp drop in medical care access as patients canceled surgeries, appointments, and treatments.
Clinics reported up to 60% cancellation rates, prompting health providers to launch volunteer-driven home visit programs to deliver care safely.
Similar patterns emerged in Dallas, Chicago, and Los Angeles, where patients avoided clinics due to fears of deportation.
Despite the end of Operation Metro Surge, federal agents were still seen near hospitals and in rural areas.
Health experts warn that without preparedness, immigrant communities will continue to avoid essential care, endangering lives, and urge cities to develop hidden medical networks to protect vulnerable populations.
