The Trump administration has told operators of shelters for immigrant children to cut back on or end education, legal services and recreation, citing funding problems as it has taken more children into custody.
“Additional resources are urgently required to meet the humanitarian needs created by this influx — to both sustain critical child welfare and release operations and increase capacity,” Evelyn Stauffer, spokeswoman for the Administration of Children and Families at HHS, said in a statement to NBC News.
Wendy Young, president of Kids in Need of Defense, which advocates for immigrant children, also criticized the directive. She said she was aware the agency was facing a funding deficit “because the numbers continue to pick up and so many policy changes have been made, so kids are staying in custody longer and bed space is not freeing up quickly.”
