Opened in July 2022 amid an “unprecedented” wave of migrants passing through the city, San Antonio’s Migrant Resource Center could stay open through September 2026.
“unprecedented”Assuming it gets the money, city executives say that would allow the MRC to stay open through its 2026 fiscal year, which ends in September.
The migrants, typically asylum-seekers, can get food, a place to stay, and help navigating their next steps at the MRC. Though Catholic Charities, which runs the day-to-day operations at the facility, used to also help provide tickets out of town to migrants, Houston said it’s not doing that at the moment because of current federal rules.
The city has used federal money to cover its costs at the MRC. Catholic Charities also receives federal funding and was just allotted $10.9 million through the SSP. Most of the council has been supportive of keeping the MRC open, though at least some still think discussions about a backup plan are still necessary.
