Although the INS has assured Congress that it agrees in principle to reforming its policies and procedures toward Juveniles. little actual progress has been made. underscoring the need for congressional oversight. With these concerns in mind. I would like some clarification from my distinguished colleague from Wisconsin about the INS Commissioners role as a member of the Coordinating Council on Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. Is my understanding correct that the committee. by including the INS Commissioners participation in the Council. is encouraging the INS to establish policies and procedures that facilitate release of undocumented juveniles to immediate relatives. responsible adults. or licensed child welfare agencies that have expertise in meeting the mental health. physical. and educational needs of Juveniles in nonsecure group homes and/or foster care settings?
