Abstract:

North Carolina and the United States at large face the problem of unaccompanied minors who have immigrated from Central America to the United States over the past two decades. Many of these children do not receive proper education or medical care due to legislation and pushback. This article brings to light the struggles of these individuals and their present situation.
