American dreamers
The program provides a safe, healthy, educational, and blissful environment for the unaccompanied minors.
The federal statute defines an "unaccompanied minor" as a child who has: No lawful immigration status in the United States; and Not attained 18 years of age; and No parent or legal guardian in the US; or no parent or legal guardian in the US available to provide care and physical custody.
The program aims to provide the following services (Limited to ages 1 month to 5 years):
