Among other camps, GardaWorld worked with the federal government for a center at Fort Bliss military base in El Paso, Texas in 2021 for thousands of unaccompanied migrant children. The inspector general for the U.S. Department of Health And Human Services singled out substandard living conditions and insufficient training for staff at the facility. And a BBC investigation found allegations of sexual abuse and rape of children, COVID and lice outbreaks, a lack of clean clothes and hungry children being served undercooked meat at the Fort Bliss facility.
