Tara Rodas was a federal employee for more than 20 years. While serving at the Pomona Fairplex Emergency Intake Site in Pomona, California, Tara volunteered to help place Unaccompanied Children with Sponsors in the United States. Tara saw, firsthand, how lack of transparency, lack of oversight, flawed policies, and deficiencies in HHS’ Unaccompanied Children Program resulted in children being placed with suspicious Sponsors and suspected trafficking rings throughout the United States.
