The Trump administration has cancelled a $11 million (£8.1 million) contract with Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Miami, ending care for unaccompanied migrant children at a shelter programme that has operated for more than 60 years.
The decision, notified to the charity in late March, will force the closure of services within three months. Officials cited a significant reduction in the number of unaccompanied minors in federal custody. The move has raised questions about the future of specialised care for children arriving without parents.
