Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration quietly signed a new $40 million agreement this week with Kansas-based Favorite Healthcare Staffing to continue to staff Chicago’s migrant shelters through October 2024, NBC Chicago reported. City finance records show Favorite Healthcare Staffing received at least $56 million over the past year to staff the shelters. According to invoices, the staffing company billed the city for four weeks at a median pay rate of $17,000 for each of its housekeepers and $24,000 apiece for each security guard; for one registered nurse at the shelters, Favorite billed Chicago a total of more than $64,272 for four weeks’ work.
