This funding will support the
expansion of shelter/foster/staff secure/
secured/therapeutic care program bed
capacity to meet the number of
unaccompanied alien children referrals
from the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS). This expansion is
necessary to replace bed capacity
discontinued at several sites as well as
to accommodate the increase of length
of stay of UAC in ORR’s care. This
supplemental funding will support the
additional bed capacity through the
summer high season, terminating at the
end of the 2008 fiscal year.
To ensure the program would have
complete flexibility to expand and
contract to meet the ever-changing
demands of the program, ORR
specifically included language in its
program announcement to stipulate that
funding and capacity may increase
based on the needs of the program. The
program has very specific requirements
for the provision of services. Existing
grantees are the only entities with the
infrastructure, licensing, experience and
appropriate level of trained staff to meet
