It has not been easy for the Mexican immigrants to move to the USA from Mexico. This is due to the tough policies that were put in place by the USA government so as to…

Within communities, people see homelessness occurring on a frequent basis, but instead of recognizing the problem, they turn their head and act as though it does not exist.

They began in 1682, when the first mission was built, called Corpus Christi de la Isleta, near modern-day El Paso.
