Answer preview

United States (U.S.) has been facing huge challenge in finding a long-term solution in dealing with the issue of increasing migration of unaccompanied children (UAC) into the country, particularly from the Central America nations (Chen & Gill, 2015). Some laws related to this issue have been successful, such as Deferred Action for Child Arrivals that offers socio-economic clearance for the UAC that came into the country as children but have grown into adulthood (Gladstone, 2016). However, the process of finding solution on the incoming UAC remains a biggest problem that the U.S. department of immigration has to deal with in findings ways to deport, reunify with parents or guardians, or offer permanent residence.
