In Springfield, Ohio, the Haitian community is grappling with fear and uncertainty as President Trump's immigration crackdown looms. The First Haitian Evangelical Church of Springfield has become a sanctuary for many seeking solace and guidance amidst the threat of raids by federal agents.
Community leaders express concerns over the potential end of the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program, which currently allows thousands of Haitians to legally reside in the U.S. The fear of deportation has led to a decline in attendance at local businesses and religious gatherings.
