Miami braces as Cuban refugees strain housing and schools
At the Orange Bowl, about 800 Cuban refugees live under ramps while Miami and Dade County scramble for funding and space. Officials warn the school system may need $20 million to provide native-language instruction and services for roughly 7,000 Cuban children amid 20,000 Haitian arrivals. Housing shortages, long public-housing waits, and overwhelmed social services threaten short term relief as officials seek borrowed space and rapid aid.
