Supporting Unaccompanied Immigrant Youth in U.S. Schools

In 2021, we are experiencing another large wave of unaccompanied immigrant children crossing the Southern border. These youth are in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement and then reunify with family members and other sponsors in our communities. What brings these youth to the U.S., what happens when they get here, and how do they end up in our classrooms? What type of education, if any, do they receive while in ORR custody and how can we support these students when they enroll in our schools? This course is part of the ​Cultural Proficiency & Equity Pathway. Complete all three ​Cultural Proficiency & Equity Pathway courses and receive Pathway Completion credentials as more evidence of your dedication to continuous growth.
