The FEMA's Shelter and Services program will provide $17.8 million to San Antonio groups and nonprofits offering services to migrants. Catholic Charities Archdiocese of San Antonio will receive the largest sum of $10 million. However, the city requested $58.5 million, raising concerns about potential budget cuts and long-term impact on the city.
SAN ANTONIO — New federal dollars are coming to San Antonio , to support San Antonio groups and nonprofits providing services to migrants.
The city of San Antonio asked for 58.5 million dollars, significantly more funding than what was given. "Previously you would have known that regardless of where you kind of were going, the flights were covered. If there was someone there to receive you," Kaur said."That's no longer the case. It also is what's attributing the lower cost, the lower number of people that we're actually seeing."
Both councilmembers explain they will continue advocating for more federal dollars to go towards the Migrant Resource Center. "Catholic Charities is committed to serving all members of our community, regardless of race, religion, or national origin, from birth to natural death. The MRC Centro de Bienvenida is a temporary shelter that provides humanitarian aid to newcomers. Since September 2022, Catholic Charities has helped over 305,000 individuals.
