Abstract:
The UC Program provides care and custody for unaccompanied 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 license them and temporary emergency 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 instruments directly related to the care of unaccompanied children. The instruments in this information collection allow ORR to place unaccompanied children referred to ORR by federal agencies into care provider facilities and to transfer children within the ORR care provider network. The current request is to continue data collection for all forms approved under this information collection, including those for which emergency approval was granted, as well as additional revisions to the following instruments: Notice of Placement in a Restrictive Setting (Form P-4) and Community-Based Care Placement Memo (formerly titled Long Term Foster Care Placement Memo) (Form P-5). This information collection was most recently approved under emergency approval for six months, as authorized under 44 U.S.C. 3507(subsection j), due to an unanticipated event that could have reasonably caused a court-ordered deadline to be missed if normal Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) clearance procedures were followed. This request is to continue data collection for all forms approved under this information collection, including those for which emergency approval was granted, as well as additional revisions. See A2 and A15 below for additional details. On June 29, 2018, Plaintiffs filed their federal class action lawsuit in the Central District of California, western division, captioned Lucas R. et al v. Azar et al (Case No. CV 18-5741-DMG (PLAx)), asserting claims under the Flores consent decree, the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act, the Due Process clause, and the First Amendment. Plaintiffs alleged violation of unaccompanied child rights in decisions regarding family reunification, placement in restrictive facilities, administration of psychotropic medication, and access to legal assistance. On August 30, 2022, the Court issued a Preliminary Injunction in response to the Cross-Motions for Summary Judgement on the family reunification, restrictive placement, and legal services claims. As part of that injunction, the court obligated ORR to expand specific policy and procedural protections to category 2 sponsors, children who wish to challenge placement in restrictive settings, and children seeking access to legal counsel by the time the Final Order took effect. Those policy and procedural protections include specific changes regarding notification of rights and documentation of restrictive placement, both of which required a new instrument and revision to an existing instrument in this information collection. The Final Order took effect on October 29, 2022.
