January 29, 2025

Do you know a child who is returning to Central America from Mexico or the United States? KIND Can Help!

  1. Provide information for returning child on their rights and what to expect upon return
  2. Communicate and coordinate with parents and/or receiving family members, including in most languages spoken in Guatemala
  3. Assist with transportation for families to meet children upon return
  4. Provide continuity of information and services such as medical care and school records
  5. Once a child is home, we offer support such as:
    • School or training for returning child and siblings
    • Counseling for child and family to help with attachment and adjustment
    • Access to additional community resources for training, education, and support
    • Gender-sensitive support, especially for children who have experienced violence
    • Group activities to bring together returned migrant children, siblings, and parents
    • Microbusiness opportunities for family members
    • Services for one year in country of origin
