Summary: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) announces
the award of single-source expansion
supplement grants to seven
unaccompanied alien shelter care
providers for a total of $5,016,218. The
additional funding provided by the
awards will support services to refugees
through September 30, 2011.
These grants will support the
expansion of bed capacity to meet the
number of unaccompanied alien
children referrals from the Department
of Homeland Security (DHS). The
funding 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 of
border crossers.
The program has 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 the service
requirements and the urgent need for
expansion. The program’s ability to
avoid a backlog of children waiting in
border patrol stations for placement can
only be accommodated through the
expansion of existing programs through
this supplemental award process.
The single-source expansion
supplement recipients are:
