The program offers a financial aid of 2,000 pesos (about $100) to deported Mexicans who lack resources to return to their communities. The aid will be delivered via the new Bienestar Paisano Card. Deportees will also be affiliated with the Mexican Social Security Institute, granting them access to insurance for sickness and maternity, work risks, disability and life, retirement, and severance in advanced age and old age. Social benefits and childcare services will be extended to the deportee's family.
Deported Mexicans will receive legal advice to help them obtain identification documents, such as birth certificates and voter's credentials. They will also have access to social housing support provided by the Ministry of Agrarian, Territorial, and Urban Development and the National Workers' Housing Fund Institute.
SEGOB has trained public servants from various Mexican states for the proper implementation of the 'Mexico Embraces You' plan. The program is a coordinated effort with the Human Rights Commission and the Business Coordinating Council.
Donald Trump's strict immigration policy and the closure of the CBP One app have led to the cancellation of thousands of scheduled appointments. The app, launched in 2021, was designed to streamline immigration flow and processes in the border region. However, its features that allowed undocumented immigrants to submit information and schedule appointments are no longer available.
The 'Mexico Embraces You' program is an example of a nation taking steps to support its citizens in the face of changing international policies. It aims to provide economic support, social services, legal advice, and housing support to help deported Mexicans reintegrate into their communities.
