DENVER — As Denver surpasses 700 migrants arriving in recent months, Mayor Michael Hancock issued an emergency declaration to prevent a “local humanitarian crisis of unsheltered migrants.”
The city is collaborating with nonprofit partners, such as Casa de Paz, to keep up with needed supplies and shelter and to help the arriving migrants feel safe and welcomed. Denver7 spoke to Keila Maria Pozo, an immigrant from Venezuela now living in Denver. Pozo is not a recent migrant — she has lived here for a year and a half, and recently became an American citizen — but she explained why so many are now fleeing her former home country.
Pozo said by even speaking to Denver7 about the conditions in Venezuela, she could be in trouble with authorities if she ever returned to the country. However, she said that she has felt very welcomed by the community, and that her experience in Denver has been “wonderful.”
