I think people would jump all over her for "taking advantage" of the situation - publicity, photo-ops etc. even if that was not her intent.

That's assuming the families would even let her visit. And why should they? She doesn't know them, she's in no official capacity and the presence of her security/entourage would just cause needless stress.
