About the company
Children's Legal Center, a nonprofit organization based in Chicago, Illinois, provides legal services for unaccompanied alien children to the federal government exclusively as a subcontractor, with all four recent awards routed through Acacia Center for Justice as the prime contractor. The vendor operates in the legal services category (NAICS Offices of Lawyers) and has generated $7.6 million in combined obligated dollars across four sub awards since May 2024.
Children's Legal Center's customer footprint is concentrated within the Department of Health and Human Services. Three of four awards fund the Administration for Children and Families' Office of Refugee Resettlement's Legal Services for Unaccompanied Children program; one award funds the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration. All recent work supports the unaccompanied children legal services mission under the prime contractor Acacia Center for Justice, with sub awards dated May 2024, May 2025, June 2025, and September 2025 covering legal representation and related case services across multiple contract option years and contract line items.
Activity has grown modestly from one award in 2024 to three awards in 2025. The Service Contract Inventory dataset, which captures federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold and excludes goods and micro-purchases, reports a single SCI-covered subcontract record in FY2024 with approximately 40.7 FTEs delivered under that arrangement. This SCI figure represents only federal service contracts meeting the reporting threshold and does not reflect Children's Legal Center's total federal revenue or enterprise workforce.
Children's Legal Center operates as a pure-play subcontractor on federal immigration and refugee work, with no prime contract vehicles, IDIQs, or direct agency relationships in the source data. The vendor's positioning as a named subcontractor to Acacia Center for Justice on a multi-year HHS ORR vehicle signals specialization in unaccompanied children's legal advocacy rather than broader government services.
