yeah, thank you, that was poor phrasing. I'll adjust. in short, I was told at the center that people often come from those countries to ecuador as a point of first departure, before eventually, sometimes after a few months, departing toward the united states.

still, in my basically non-existent knowledge of "how" they get here, it seems strange they would go from a country closer to the US to a country farther away. But God willing, they will find what they need in Ecuador.
