This is a federal program to fund organizations that already hold state licenses to run group homes, shelters, or transitional foster care for unaccompanied migrant children in federal custody, operating 24/7. If you are not already licensed for residential child care, do not bother applying. It is also a poor fit for retail, finance, food, or any business with no connection to residential child services.

Funds organizations to operate licensed residential care (group homes, shelters, transitional foster care) for unaccompanied migrant children in ORR custody, 24/7. Applicants must already be state-licensed; individuals, federal and foreign entities are ineligible. ORR prioritizes beds and foster care near the southern border.
The Residential Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children funding opportunity is intended to support organizations that can provide high-quality, child-centered care that promotes children's safety and well-being. Funded providers must offer services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and have the capacity to accept children at any time, when it is safe to do so and consistent with state licensing requirements. Although children in ORR care are in the federal government's legal custody due to their immigration status, care providers are responsible for their day-to-day physical care. At the time of application, providers must be licensed, in accordance with state requirements, to provide group home, shelter, or transitional foster care services for children, including any required child placement or related licenses. ORR is particularly interested in projects that provide residential facility beds and transitional foster care in states and localities near the U.S. southern border with Mexico. Standard ORR care providers must be licensed by an appropriate State agency, or meet the State's licensing requirements if located in a State that does not allow State licensing of programs providing or proposing to provide care and services to unaccompanied children. See 45 C.F.R. 410.1302(a) .
