Abstract: The ORR Unaccompanied Alien Children Bureau (UACB) provides care and custody for unaccompanied alien children until they can be safely released to a sponsor, repatriated to their home country, or obtain legal status. ORR funds residential care provider facilities that provide temporary housing and other services to children in ORR custody. Generally, care provider facilities are State- licensed (with the exception of those located in states unwilling to consider them for licensure and temporary influx care facilities) and must meet ORR requirements to ensure a high-level quality of care. Services provided at care provider facilities include, but are not limited to, education, recreation, vocational training, acculturation, nutrition, medical, mental health, legal, and case management. ORR uses several forms directly related to the care of unaccompanied alien children. The forms in this information collection allow ORR to ensure that serious issues are elevated to ORR and that all incidents, and responses to such incidents, are documented and resolved in a way that protects the interests of unaccompanied alien children. ORR is in the process of reorganizing its information collections to better manage its large portfolio of forms. As part of that reorganization effort, ORR is submitting this request to transfer six existing forms (with revisions) currently approved under OMB# 0970-0547 under a new OMB control number.
