Pima County leases half of a former call center to Casa Alitas' shelter but the shelter says it does not have the capacity to offer overnight accomodations at the rate of migrants coming in each day.
TUCSON, Ariz. — Hundreds of migrants and asylum seekers pass through Pima County everyday and people who care for them expect their numbers to grow. Casa Alitas, a migrant shelter in Tucson, shows KGUN 9 how they plan to keep up with the demand ahead of Title 42.
“About 85% of these folks are hailing from points within Asia. Particularly the region of India. That's a dramatic shift for us away from Latin based countries," said Teresa Cavendish, Casa Alitas Shelter Director.
