WASHINGTON — The biggest housing provider for unaccompanied migrant children nabbed billions of dollars in grants from the Biden administration — and used the massive windfall to boost and even double some executives’ salaries, according to tax filings and records exclusively obtained by The Post.
Southwest Key Programs pulled down roughly $3 billion in federal taxpayer funds between fiscal years 2021 and 2024, according to data compiled by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), to help shelter and place migrant kids with US sponsors as border crossings hit an all-time high under President Joe Biden.
Over roughly the same period, the Austin, Texas-based nonprofit’s higher-ups also raked in much higher take-home pay — with the group’s president disclosing a whopping 139% increase, per the latest tax filings.
The Austin-based nonprofit’s higher-ups raked in much higher take-home pay from 2021 to 2023 — with the group’s president disclosing a whopping million-dollar income in its latest tax filings.

At the same time, Southwest Key was hit with investigations — and a federal lawsuit — that alleged some migrant kids in its care were sexually abused by employees or else handed over to traffickers.
