Thousands of Central American migrants are pitching tents and shuffling between shelters in Tijuana, Mexico. They're gathered there at the U.S./Mexico border waiting for a chance to apply for asylum in the U.S.

A group of Boston-based volunteers have traveled to Tijuana to offer legal advice. WBUR's Shannon Dooling has joined them to report on their efforts, and spoke to Morning Edition about it.

This segment aired on December 14, 2018.
