  • This Past August, the Essex County Executive, Joe Divincenzo, Entered Into an Inter-Governmental Services Agreement
    Essex County Immigration Detention Expansion, an Invitation for Abuse Background In early August, Essex County Executive, Joe DiVincenzo, entered into a new Inter- Governmental Services Agreement (IGSA) with Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to increase the number of ICE detainees held in Essex County from 500 to 1,250. Until the new agreement, New Jersey had experienced a continued increase in the number of immigration detention having reached the previous all time high of approximately 1,600 beds in February, 2010. The Essex County Correctional Facility immediately added 300 additional beds, and the privately-run Delaney Hall opened to 68 women and 382 men opened in October. The total number of detention beds in New Jersey is now around 2,350. The history of immigration detention in New Jersey includes a myriad of cases of abuse, including a number of shocking deaths, a culture of secrecy and lack of transparency. Up until this fall, New Jersey had only one privately-run facility for immigrant detainees, the Elizabeth Detention Center, the Elizabeth Detention Center, which originally owned and run by a company known, at that time, as Esmore, now Correctional Services Corporation (CSC). The facility changed hands back in 1994 after riots over poor conditions forced it to close temporarily. It is now run by Corrections Corporation of America (CCA). It was the death of a Guinean tailor, Boubacar Bah, while in CCA‟s custody at Elizabeth that spurred a series of articles by the New York Times and raised the issue of substandard medical care and neglect in immigration detention to the national level.

DiVincenzo, Jr. Essex County Executive December 14, 2020 Dear Mayor: After months of having to live with the Coronavirus, there is light at the end of the tunnel – very soon Essex County will begin receiving COVID-19 vaccinations. Since March, Essex County, along with our partners in municipal government – mayors, council members, public health officers, law enforcement officers and emergency management personnel – have been working together to address and respond to the pandemic. We are now seeking your assistance to help us staff the vaccination centers and are requesting that each municipality provide us with 20 energetic, committed and compassionate people who can work at these sites. We currently are preparing five locations to serve as vaccination centers for Essex County residents. Each site will be able to handle as many as 1,000 vaccinations a day. On a daily basis, this will require upwards of 150 medical and clerical personnel per site. Specifically, we are asking municipal employees and members of the public to help provide administrative assistance for vaccination operations. We are also looking for qualified individuals with a nursing or medical background to be part of our inoculation team. Those working at one of the vaccination sites will be provided with full PPE during the time they are at the site. They will also receive priority status in receiving the vaccine if they wish to receive the vaccine. We anticipate that hours will be from 9am to 5pm Monday through Saturday.
