### Support Programs for Deported Mexicans Expanded
Starting in 2025, individuals deported to Baja California will benefit from an expansion of federal support programs. These initiatives include making resources directly available at shelters, according to Alejandro Ruiz Uribe, regional delegate for Federal Welfare Programs in Baja California. The announcement follows discussions with the Business Coordinating Council of Ensenada.
The Mexican government has enhanced the training of officials to better address the needs of deported migrants. Building on efforts from areas like Tijuana, Chihuahua, and Matamoros during the previous U.S. administration, Ruiz Uribe highlighted that shelters are now acting as gateways to various social programs. These include “Jóvenes Construyendo el Futuro” (Youth Building the Future), pensions for seniors, and childcare support for mothers with young children.
“Every person arriving at a shelter will have the opportunity to enroll in these programs and receive benefits directly or in their home communities,” Ruiz Uribe mentioned.
### Expanding Access to Welfare
Ruiz Uribe also spoke about plans to increase funding for welfare programs in Baja California, aiming for a boost of 48 billion pesos to benefit more than 583,000 individuals. Presently, over 360,000 seniors in the area are receiving a pension of 6,200 pesos, while 30,000 working mothers benefit from childcare subsidies.
Through these initiatives, the government is dedicated to providing comprehensive aid to deportees and enhancing welfare programs for vulnerable populations in the region.
