In fiscal year 2017, the Department of Homeland Security returned nearly 75,000 migrants to El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. We examined U.S. efforts to help migrants reintegrate into their home countries—such as by helping them reestablish psychological, social and economic ties. Since 2014, USAID has provided about $27 million to assist returnees. This assistance has included providing food, transportation, school supplies, and help finding work. It has not yet assessed the effectiveness of these efforts, but has plans to do so.
