Earlier this year, Pima County administrator Jan Lesher got a report from Catholic Community Services. The report said they were working with a vendor giving services to their Casa Alitas Drexel shelter that didn’t have a contract.Lesher sent a memo to the Pima County Board of Supervisors saying that’s against both county and federal rules. An investigation by the New Republic uncovered the laundry service Casa Alitas hired significantly overcharged them.
Cisomani said in fiscal year 2024, so far Pima County has gotten over $21 million through FEMA’s Shelter and Services Program for the shelter.When compared to other shelters that got the same grant, he said Casa Alitas has used up the funds a lot faster.He notes a recent report from the New Republic said $200,000 funded through tax payers were not used correctly by the shelter.
