Program Linguistic Support Feedback Survey
PURPOSE: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), Unaccompanied Children (UC) Program plans to gather feedback from its care provider programs on languages spoken by staff and languages spoken by the local community. The UC Program will use this feedback to improve services provided by the UC Program. Specifically, the feedback will assist the UC Program in understanding where programs with high populations of specific cultural/linguistic backgrounds are located.

The survey is voluntary and will be conducted quarterly.
