The San Diego Rapid Response Network has been working to help those migrant families with basic resources like food, shelter and medical care. The group says shelters in south San Diego are reaching capacity.
The group, which is a coalition of human rights services and faith-based organizations, have been doing what they can, but they say the growing need is quickly surpassing their ability to help.
Advocates are asking government leaders to come up with a plan to help the migrant families reach their respective destinations until their asylum hearings begin.
