ICE plans to establish a “National Call Center” to help law enforcement track unaccompanied migrant children for potential removal.
The call center is expected to receive and process 6,000 to 7,000 calls per day.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement plans to establish a “National Call Center” in Nashville, Tennessee, to help law enforcement track unaccompanied migrant children for potential removal, according to an agency contracting document.
In the notice posted to a government contracting website on Tuesday, ICE officials said there is an “immediate need” to establish the call center, which is expected to receive and process “6,000 to 7,000 calls per day” regarding the locations of minors.
The call center could be fully operational by June 2026, ICE said.
The move comes amid the Trump administration’s effort to target unaccompanied migrant children as part of its broader immigration crackdown.
Last month, the Department of Homeland Security sent a notice to legal service providers saying it is offering unaccompanied migrant children a “one-time resettlement” stipend of $2,500 to voluntarily depart the U.S.
