The Office of Refugee Resettlement
(ORR) Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) Bureau 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 perform UAC Bureau-related administrative
activities, such as facilitating stakeholder visits to care
provider facilities; obtaining consent from children to share their
case file information; and processing requests and waivers for the
hiring of key and non-key personnel at care provider facilities.
This request is for revisions to five existing forms in this
collection and to remove seven forms, which will be transferred
under new Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control numbers
(separate requests will be submitted for the new control numbers).
Details about the changes are described in section A15 of
Supporting Statement A.
