Administration for Children and Families. (ACF) 1. Office of Refugee Resettlement (XXX): XXX, a program office of the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) within the Department of Health and Human Services, manages the Unaccompanied Children (UC) Program and is responsible for the care, custody and placement of unaccompanied children in Federal custody by reason of their immigration status. See 6 U.S.C.§ 279; 8 U.S.C. § 1232(b), (c). Unaccompanied children are defined in statute as children who are under the age of 18; do not have lawful immigration status in the United States; and with respect to whom there is no parent or legal guardian in the United States, or no parent or legal guardian available to provide physical care and physical custody.
