As migrant crossings at the border drop to their lowest levels during the Biden administration, a new initiative has been announced to assist communities that bear the brunt of sheltering migrants across the country. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will allocate over $380 million to assist immigrants living in communities affected by the border crisis, aiming to prevent overcrowding in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (CBP) detention facilities.
This funding augments the $259.13 million in SSP grants that DHS distributed in April.
