California foster parents are reportedly being asked to take in migrant children by a state agency, and there is an option to house “26 or more” minors.
“This is an emergency message, please respond to this urgent message from the Community Care Licensing Division,” said the purported voicemail from March 12. “CCLD would like to know how many available beds you have to serve additional youth.”
Foster parents Travis and Sharla Kall informed the Daily Mail that they also received an “urgent” email from CCLD requesting to know how many children they could house.
“Important message from the Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) –CA Department of Social Services,” the email to the couple read. “Please respond to this urgent message from the Community Care Licensing Division. CCLD would like to know how many available beds you have to serve additional youth.”
The email offered four options for foster parents:
- Available bed capacity is zero
- Available bed capacity is 1-10
- Available bed capacity is 11-25
- Available bed capacity is 26+
