Casa Del Migrante is a migrant shelter in Reynosa, Mexico where migrants wait to enter the US legally through a CBP-1 appointment. Wait times are nearing 8 months. It primarily serves vulnerable populations in the cartel-controlled area—usually women and families, most of who have been kidnapped, trafficked, and/or exploited. Casa del Migrante is run by nuns who provide bedding, water, food, cleaning resources, and bathrooms. They also run activities with children.
