These supplement grants will support
the expansion of bed capacity and
supportive services to meet the number
of unaccompanied alien children
referrals from the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS). The funding
program is mandated by section 462 of
the Homeland Security Act to ensure
appropriate placement of all referrals
from the DHS. The program is tied to
DHS apprehension strategies and
sporadic number of border crossers.
Award funds will support services to
unaccompanied alien children through
September 30, 2013.
DATES: The period of support under
these supplements is October 1, 2012
through September 30, 2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Since the
beginning of FY 13, the Unaccompanied
Alien Children (UAC) program has seen
a dramatic increase in the number of
DHS referrals. The influx of border
crossers referred by DHS has grown
beyond anticipated rates and has
resulted in the program needing a
significant increase in the number of
shelter beds and supportive services.
The UAC program has specific
requirements for the provision of
services to unaccompanied alien
children. These grantee organizations

are the only entities with the
infrastructure, licensing, experience,
and appropriate level of trained staff to
meet the required service requirements
and the urgent need for the expansion
of services required to respond to
unexpected arrivals of unaccompanied
children. The program expansion
supplement will support such services
and alleviate the buildup of children
waiting in border patrol stations for
placement in shelter care.
