EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – A donation from El Paso’s Hope Border Institute has helped feed 110 migrant families in Juarez, Mexico.
The Catholic Church-affiliated nonprofit partnered with Mexico’s Derechos Humanos Integrales en Accion (DHIA) to deliver social services information and then take the families grocery shopping this week.
Hope Border Institute Deputy Director for Global Migration Jesus de la Torre said many asylum-seekers became stranded in Mexican border cities when the U.S. government curtailed options for them to apply for protection. Many are living day to day.
In El Paso, the organization has given grants to local groups that provide legal services for migrants whose cases remain in U.S. immigration court.
In this episode of Border Report Live, host Rudy Mireles and correspndent Julian Resendiz speak about the work the Hope Border Institute does on both sides of the border.
