We did it! On Saturday, Aug. 3, we got word that the largest detention facility for migrant children in the country – in Homestead, Florida – was empty. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has said that most of the children formerly held there were united with their sponsors and families, while some were transferred to smaller, state-licensed facilities. We are following this as news keeps breaking.
