      Why didn’t you hear about Shiloh and other unaccompanied children shelters sooner? As @PatrickMichels reports, the attorneys that represent children are paid by the government with an implicit understanding of staying silent about their circumstances.https://www.revealnews.org/article/the-government-pays-for-migrant-childrens-lawyers-challenge-the-government-and-they-can-lose-their-funding/ …

      The @verainstitute gets more than $50 million in government funding. “But... the refugee agency has made it clear that they should not challenge the government in court over its decisions to keep holding children or to place them in a secure lockup or psychiatric treatment home.”

      Court documents and attorneys say that @verainstitute discourages its grantees from taking legal action to protect children from ORR’s actions. Do so and Vera may never refer another case to you ever again.

      Imagine you’re an attorney representing a 10-year-old who pees on themselves and thus gets sent to Shiloh. The government, through @verainstitute, pays you and discourages you from taking legal action to challenge the decision to send the child to Shiloh. Do you:

          This is an open secret in the unaccompanied child advocate community. And several immigration reporters have known about it, too. I’m so happy that @PatrickMichels is the first to report this out. I have the feeling this will open up many more horror stories we should know about.

          Years ago I lost my job because I advocated for youth in placement who were being denied contact w/their attys. I was told to stop. Don't stop, don't ever stop no matter the cost. You are that child's voice, be loud!

          Working in service to others I was aware of power dynamics that do more harm to already vulnerable folk. Standing up for them, ensuring their voices were heard was right & just.
