The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), within the Administration for Children and Families, provides temporary shelter care and other child welfare-related services to Unaccompanied Children (UC) in ORR custody. Residential care services begin once ORR accepts a UC for placement and end when the minor is released from ORR custody, turns 18 years of age, or the minors immigration case results in a final disposition of removal from the United States. Residential care and other child welfare-related services are provided by state child placement licensed residential care programs in the least restrictive setting appropriate for the UCs age and special needs. ORR is announcing the availability of funds under this Standing Notice of Funding Opportunity (SNOFO) to seek residential care providers, including shelter, group home, and transitional foster care. At the time of application, applicants do not have to be licensed by an appropriate licensing agency to provide residential shelter, group, or foster care services for children.
