Through its network of providers, the Unaccompanied Refugee Minors (URM) Program serves some of the most vulnerable children and youth in the world — those who were fleeing persecution, violence, or abuse, and entered the United States without a parent or custodian. The program provides foster care and other living arrangements, as well as the necessary care and services to help the minors develop appropriate skills to enter adulthood. This fact sheet describes who the URM program serves, client services, pathways into the program, and the program caseload.
