    This funding will support the expansion of shelter/foster care

    The program is mandated by section 462 of the Homeland Security Act 
to ensure appropriate placement of all referrals from the DHS. ORR's 
ability to meet this mandate is often a challenge since the program is 
completely tied to DHS apprehension strategies and the sporadic number

number of children referred from DHS in the past few months 
necessitating an expansion of existing shelter care capacity.
    The program has very specific requirements for the provision of

infrastructure, licensing, experience and appropriate level of trained 
staff to meet the service requirements and the urgent need for 
expansion. The program's ability to avoid a backlog of children waiting
