This bill, the Unaccompanied Minor Placement Notification Act, aims to improve the care and support for unaccompanied minors entering the United States.

Specifically, the bill amends existing law to mandate that agencies notify the relevant school district and child welfare agency within 96 hours of a placement decision. This notification will include the sponsor’s address to facilitate the child’s integration and well-being.
