The Monitoring and Compliance for ORR Care Provider Facilities information collection consists of several forms that allow the Unaccompanied Children (UC) Program to monitor its care provider facilities for compliance with Federal and State laws and regulations, licensing and accreditation standards, ORR policies and procedures, and child welfare standards. Currently, there are three versions of a questionnaire for UC â ages 5 and under; ages 6-12; and ages 13 and older (UC Questionnaires, Forms M-12A, M-12B and M-12E, respectively). ORR proposes including questions in forms M-12A and M-12B that will assist in monitoring ORR care provider programs that house Unaccompanied Afghan Minors (UAM) and solicit relevant information from all UC.
