Federal government pays Denver $2.4 million to care for migrant foster children
The Denver City Council accepted a federal grant Monday to pay for foster care for unaccompanied migrant children in Denver. The $2.4 million grant will pay for care through Sept. 30, 2025, according to city spokesman Jon Ewing. "The grant funding received for the Unaccompanied Refugee Minor program is entirely federal, so federal dollars pay for the full $2.4 million," Ewing said. "Nothing is coming out of Denver’s budget and DHS isn’t paying the state. The grant pays us."
