Homestead, once the country’s largest for-profit shelter for housing unaccompanied migrant children, will effectively close November 30 after the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) declined to renew its federal contract by lisettevoytko
“While [the closure] is a step in the right direction, no child should be held in detention because of their immigration status,” said Amnesty researcher Denise Bell in an emailed statement.she went “to see firsthand the horror of Trump’s family separation policy and was denied entry” and vowed to end all for-profit detention centers if she wins the presidency in 2020.
A request for comment to Caliburn International, the holding company of Comprehensive Health Services , which runs Homestead, was not immediately returned.“Caliburn will no longer receive millions of dollars to operate an empty facility. Taxpayers should never have been footing the bill for inhumane immigration policies,” wrote Congresswoman Debbie Murcasel-Powell, a Florida Democrat, on Twitter.
