Description
Volunteers have built makeshift shelters, out of pallets covered in tarps, around Jacumba Hot Springs to help protect migrants from the elements as they wait outdoors to get processed through indoor detention facilities. But the volunteers believe the federal government and local vandals keep tearing them down.
“A lot of people like to assume everyone coming through is single men. That’s definitely not the case. I would say between 30-40% of the migrants I see are women and children,” said John Schultz, one of the volunteers who lives in Jacumba Hot Springs and builds these shelters with other volunteers.
