York County and other ICE Facilities came under fire couple of years ago. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Centers were having problems with their detainees and their health. The center's issues were with overcrowding and with medical treatment. Most inmates were not receiving the necessary treatment. York County, Pennsylvania set up a way to end prison and detention centers expansions. With the new funds, the state would put it towards the communities. The funds would provide education, jobs, housing, healthcare, and a path for the inmates and detainees to reenter society. This was pushed by Detention Watch Network, who led the inspection of Immigration and Enforcement Centers on the medical practices. The inspections done were made public and made sure the right punishments weren't sent out to the facilities.
