The government camp is a camp subsidized by the government. Ma Joad is shocked that they are actually treated with dignity. There new working showers, toilets, and kitchens with food. It is also governed by the migrants themselves and off-limits for police officers without a warrant. This is in contact to the poverty and constant police harassment that they had to endure in the private company camps.
