Refugee Resettlement: Custody and Court Papers

refugee resettlement: That means she will no longer be in the custody of the Health and Human Services Department office that oversees shelters housing immigrant children, according to Metro News. In March, HHS's Office of Refugee Resettlement revised its policy to discourage and prohibit pregnant teens from having abortions. The Trump administration says in court papers filed Tuesday that it has obtained the teen's birth certificate and it shows she is 19 years old, not 17. The administration said the woman would be transferred to Department of Homeland Security custody. It's unclear when she might have the abortion, but other federal agencies appear to allow women in their custody to have abortions. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
