Migration and child welfare are both complicated topics. As unaccompanied youth spans both of these categories, we'd like to help you learn more and sort out the facts as well as share with you our understandings based on a dozen years of refugee ministry work and even longer in roles serving children, including at-risk youth.
Here are some pages on our site to help you out:
Blog - our journey, our opinions, stories of those we work with
News - a gathering of information we have vetted and found to be helpful (although often heartbreaking and challenging)
Resources - we offer materials to help you learn about and befriend unaccompanied youth in healthy ways. Some of these are our original resources while others we have learned about through our network.
Helpful Links - there are lots of organizations helping refugees, asylum seekers, youth, etc. Here are some links to get you connected.
