Authorities have accused the United States' largest housing provider for illegal immigrant children of sexually abusing and harassing children in its care.

The Justice Department says Southwest Key employees, including supervisors, have abused children since at least 2015.

Southwest Key has received more than $3 billion from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to house immigrant children. It currently has 29 shelters in Texas, Arizona and California.
