Jewish Family Service of San Diego will shut down a regional migrant shelter it ran for more than six years and lay off 115 employees due to “changes in federal funding and policy” by the Trump administration.
The nonprofit, which will now focus its immigrant-relief efforts on providing pro bono legal services, announced the layoffs in a required filing submitted Monday to the state Employment Development Department.
Jewish Family Service said that once the layoffs are finalized in April — the law requires 60 days notice for mass layoffs — it will cease operations of its San Diego Rapid Response Network migrant shelter services.
The organization said in a statement that its transition shelter — which provided medical screenings, food, case management, legal support and travel coordination — has received no new migrants since Inauguration Day, when the Trump administration ended use of the CBP One app.
