One of the many reasons that often force people to flee their home countries is a lack of secure systems that provide help. Most countries are either dealing with one or multiple of the following issues: war, famine, gang violence, economic crises and government corruption. In many cases people flee not just because their government cannot help them but because their government is actively oppressing them. This is one reason why many policy experts are focused not just on immigration reform, but also on addressing the root causes of migration.
