Some local migrant services groups have already voiced concerns about the choice of a non-local contractor.

More than a dozen migrants are moved by U.S. Border Patrol agents after they waited between the border walls that separate Tijuana from San Diego on the day before Title 42 is set to end on Thursday, May 11, 2023. For months, Border Patrol has used the area to hold migrants for several days until agents take them to stations for processing.

To fund the center, the county plans to use part of its federal allocation from the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Jasso worries an outside group unfamiliar with the region and its support networks could cause even more alarm. She wants funds go to a group that will be vigilant in ensuring support goes to migrants who need it most.

Jewish Family Service declined to comment and referred to a previous statement from its CEO. “We remain committed to working with all levels of government to ensure no one in our community stands alone,” Michael Hopkins said., which provides the most vulnerable asylum seekers — those with medical conditions, families, pregnant women and those who are LGBTQ+ — temporary places to stay and helps them continue on to their final destination in the U.S.

But he highlighted how things have changed since Biden’s order. “We haven’t had a single street release in San Diego County in over two months,” he said.
