The importance of being organized The Government of Yucatan wants to work with You. It is very important, of the same country yucatecos, that they organize themselves. The community yucateca that is in California is beginning to organize itself. First by community and municipality of origin, later in ampler organizations. These organizations, sometimes calls "clubs", serve to support the countrymen. It is very important that you inform to you, in your Consulate and with your countrymen, of the clubs and organizations who already exist.

Also they are being organized in unions from the United States to support the celebrations in its communities. Your paper within these organizations is fundamental to maintain the relations with your community alive.

A way to support to your family and community in Yucatan is through the Program 3 Xs 1. This Program impels the Government of Mexico through the Secretariat of Social Development to support social infrastructure projects productive and in the communities of origin of the migrantes. Citizen Initiative is called 3 Xs 1, because by each weight that put You, the Federal Government puts another weight, the Government of the State puts another one and the Municipal Government puts another weight. You must know that, for the first time, this program is operating in Yucatan and the first work made the countrymen of KinÃÂ*, of the Municipality of Motul, who live in California and which they belong to the Federation of Yucatecos Clubs. They made works of Rehabilitation and Construction in the Garden of Children "the PÃÂ*pila".

The Program 3 xs 1 The Project cost 152 thousand pesos, of which every one contributed 37 thousand 900 pesos (the Federal Government, the Government of Yucatan, the Municipality of Motul and the Countrymen of KinÃÂ* in California).

Many countrymen become ill and interrupt their treatment when migrating. The costs of the medical service in the United States are high. For that reason, the Secretariat of Health supports to you through different programs. Question in the center of health of your community or in the Mexican consulate in the United States: you and your family can benefit from the Program Vetoes healthy, Returns healthy.

All the Border has risks when crossing it without papers. Nevertheless, the places have been identified where commonly the migrantes have passed away that crossed the border between Mexico and the United States. These places are in California, Arizona and Texas.

In the case of New Mexico the highways are very remote, reason why he is not either safe to cross that way.

It is important that you have all the information of the places by which you are going to walk: the name of the towns of the side of Mexico and the side of the United States.

It consults the maps in the INDEMAYA or the Offices of Attention to Migrantes of the north of the country, whose telephones you will find at the end of this Gui'a.

The considered zones of greater risk in California are:

Each one of these places has risks that will put your life in danger. For example, in the crossing by the Channel Everything-American they have died drowned a great amount of migrantes. It is a very long irrigation channel with a current very hard that cannot be seen. When these to inside it takes you. It has very lofty cement borders that will not allow you to leave.

Arizona The most dangerous Zones of Arizona are:

These places are dangerous, specially the Reservation Tohono Óodham. If the chicken farmer passes you through the Door of San Miguel or by the towns of Ajo or Sells, you must know that it is desert the more duro to walk. Many take the route from the Sasabe. You must know that there is Sasabe in Mexico (Sonorous) and Sasabe in the United States (Arizona). To the north of Sasabe-Sonora it is the Valley of Altar, where you will be able to find water and is safer. If of the Sasabe you go away to the Reservation Tohono Óodham she is very probable that nosobrevivas. The distances are very long to arrive at the highways: they are more than 100 kilometers until arriving at Tucson.

The Desert It remembers: you do not have to walk of Sasabe-Sonora towards the West, because there is more sun and there is water no to drink. Many chicken farmers pass to the countrymen by Sonoyta-Sonora and Lukeville-Arizona. When happening through Lukeville you will cross by a National Park where you will find water tanks. But if the Chicken farmer decides to walk after the Park, you will walk by ways in which is no border patrol, but are places in which military practices are made: Nobody knows whichever migrantes have died because of these practices! If you cross by the desert you will take several days in finding ways and you will not be able to load foods nor water for as much time. The route is very hard and the risks are many and real.

It takes papers of Identification Many countrymen do not take papers that identify them, like the credential to vote or the birth certificate. They think that if gives another name they can return to enter without they exist antecedent in the United States. But this is not certain, because the migratory authorities will have your fingerprints and then you will be jailed to present/display false documentation.

In each State of the American Union the Laws are different; nevertheless in all there are general laws that you must know and respect. Pregúntales to your countrymen in where your address has left the Consulate of Mexico closest so that they give all the information you who you need.
