Nine of these facilities are right here in Chicago, operated by Heartland Alliance and the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago. The vast majority of these children have loved ones trying to reclaim custody. However, reunification is delayed due to long and arduous investigations of these families' suitability. In the name of "protecting" the children from possible trafficking or other harms, migrant children are being held in lock-ups where they are critically endangered at this time ! We are pushing for emergency measures to reunify the children with their loved ones NOW !
