Loyola of Los Angeles Law Review
Each year, thousands of unaccompanied minors enter the United States. Upon arrival, these children face a complicated legal process defined by several exchanges between state and federal entities. This Article focuses on one avenue of relief available to these unaccompanied minors: Special Immigrant Juvenile Status.

Focusing on practical improvements, this Article highlights key areas where state and federal entities can more appropriately and efficiently address the unique concerns presented by SIJS-eligible unaccompanied minors.
