In the United States, some people face extreme circumstances that force them to seek shelter and protection. Violence and persecution in their home country can endanger their lives and the lives of their loved ones.
What does TPS mean is asylum?
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is valuable protection that provides refuge to those who face risks and dangers in their home country. In the United States, this humanitarian measure offers temporary safety from deportation to individuals from certain countries who are under adverse conditions.
This program not only helps citizens of specific countries, but also people without nationality who meet the requirements to be eligible. Solidarity and protection are fundamental values that guide this initiative.
At the beginning of 2022, more than 350,000 people from approximately 12 nations found refuge in the United States thanks to TPS. Most of these beneficiaries come from countries such as El Salvador, Honduras, Haiti and Venezuela. This is an example of how the United States strives to provide support to those who need it most and demonstrates its commitment to human rights and empathy. Together, we work for a safer and more compassionate world.
