The city of Portland, Maine, is scrambling to keep up with a homeless crisis, along with arrivals of migrants in need of city services. The city continues to open up new shelter space and move migrants out to other areas, as well. “The influx of asylum seekers has grown every year since Portland became a sanctuary city and currently the homeless shelter is full of asylum seekers,” Carol Waig, who runs nonprofit My Fathers Hands, which helps the homeless population in Portland, told the DCNF.
