Many Mexican deportees comprise youth who were forced to quit their studies in the US and return to their home country.

Hundreds of thousands of Mexican immigrants are deported by the US every year.

The deportations have picked up pace under President Donald Trump, forcing many living as undocumented immigrants in the US to quit their studies and adjust to a completely new environment.

But one non-profit organisation "Dream in Mexico" has found a way of helping such youth help themselves.
