“[CBPOne] is causing a lot of inequities, that’s what we’re seeing in border towns,” said Pedro de Velasco, Director of Education and Advocacy at the #KinoBorderInitiative to #KOLD this week. 

The #CBPOne application continues to present serious accessibility issues for families seeking safety, including lack of language access, technological problems, and very limited appointments. 

“The word that we’re hearing a lot is ‘impotencia’ it’s frustrating to not be able to secure an appointment not only for themselves but for their families,” he said. 

Support people seeking #asylum by donating your old phone to #KBI today. Many #migrants lack a smartphone to access the application. Give today. 

You can mail or drop off donations to: 
81 N. Terrace Ave, Nogales AZ, 85621
If dropping items off, please call first
to make sure someone is there to meet you.

Your donation is tax deductible.

🚨Noticias para nuestros hermanos y hermanas mig 🚨Noticias para nuestros hermanos y hermanas migrantes 🚨 La aplicación CBP One comenzó a operar a partir del 12 de enero y es el único medio para poder buscar una excepción al Título 42 e ingresar a los Estados Unidos para iniciar tu proceso de asilo. 
Entendemos que hay muchas preguntas sobre cómo completar tu solicitud. También reconocemos que existen muchas barreras técnicas para descargar la aplicación y completar el formulario. Esto puede alentar a alguno a comunicarse con personas que se ofrecen a “ayudar” con la solicitud a cambio de un pago.

Recuerda que la solicitud es GRATIS, cualquiera que te esté cobrando por llenarla se está aprovechando. Compartir tu información con un desconocido puede ponerte a ti y a tu familia en riesgo. Además, un extraño puede cometer errores y dañar tu caso o afectar tus posibilidades.

Si tiene alguna pregunta, envíenos un mensaje. Estamos aquí para ayudar.
