, the focus is now on the well-being of migrants coming across the border. Many Southern California groups are preparing to serve and take care of a majority of them.
The Mojica family has been in the United States since December after migrating from Guerrero, Mexico. They came seeking asylum after a loved one was killed."When they let me know what happened, that they had killed my nephew, they told me they feared for their lives and they honestly couldn't stay there any longer," she said in Spanish."We have been looking at who can help us," she added. "We sometimes stop by places that give away food. They are helping us a bit.
The family was allowed in in spite of Title 42, which became law during the pandemic as a way to stop the spread of COVID-19 by immediately removing migrants, including people seeking asylum. However, after the law expired Thursday night, organizations that help migrants like the Mojica family expect a spike in people needing help.
"We're getting ready for the unexpected," said Juan Jose Gutierrez, executive director for One Stop Immigration Center.
