Illinois has more than 300,000 undocumented immigrants without health insurance, and they face many challenges when it comes to finding emergency care and other services. Here to talk to us about some of those challenges and what their groups are doing about them are Janeth Vazquez, organizer with Salud Sin Papeles, a division of the group Undocumented Illinois. And Diane Limas, board member and community leader with Communities United, a member organization of the Illinois Coalition of Immigrant and Refugee Rights. (Flickr/wellness_photos)
