Montgomery County has ended its relationship with a Wheaton child care center whose spending practices have come under scrutiny from the FBI and county officials.

The county is moving its contracts for Centro Familia to another nonprofit, according to a memo that Uma Ahluwalia, director of the Department of Health and Human Services, sent to County Council members late Monday evening. Ahluwalia said the move was at the behest of officials from Centro Familia, which gears its services to low-income Latino immigrants.
