Here is an explanatory document in English, Dari, and Pashto for Unaccompanied Afghan Minors (UAMs) who have been given humanitarian parole to help explain to UAMs what Humanitarian Parole is (and isn’t) and was created in response to feedback from programs that there was confusion about Humanitarian Parole status. The target audience of the document is UAMs themselves.
The document was prepared by ORR’s Unaccompanied Children (UC) Policy Unit. While this may not be something you and your programs use, we feel it will be helpful for you to be aware of the information that UAMs receive.
