Vivianne Petit-frére, a community liaison for Haitian Bridge Alliance, said that the group has funded funerals for 12 Haitian migrants since December, mostly because of violence and medical negligence.
Sael, 32, a community volunteer for Defend Asylum, has been living in Tijuana for about eight months but in the country for about a year. Sael lives in a home with three other adults and is seeking asylum in the United States. He, like many Haitians, fears for his life living in Tijuana.
