|a As a nation, we have become aware of a growing humanitarian tragedy involving thousands of our youthful neighbors, the unaccompanied children, crossing our Southern U.S. borders. These children come to the United States, hungry and thirsty for both sustenance and justice. They come with no papers, no VISA. Some come alone, some come with siblings or relatives, and some come with neighbors, or adults other than their parents. In the bureaucratic jargon of the government of the United States, an unaccompanied minor is known as an “UAC.” The author’s central ministerial concern is to assess and understand the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the unaccompanied minors in Waukegan, Illinois and surrounding Lake County cities of Zion, Antioch, North Chicago, Grayslake, Gurnee, and Round Lake. In this study, the author will search for how God is present and active in this marginalized group, and how our liberation is bound together. This thesis-project also explores how the parish of La Santísima Trinidad and the Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa, Wisconsin could address the ministerial concerns for these children. The author designed initiatives that include program design and planning recommendations. Each strategic initiative was envisioned in order to allow the unaccompanied minor to be the subject of the change proposed. These action plans reflect the voice of the unaccompanied minor. Of the eight proposed strategic initiatives, each one stresses the importance of access and accompaniment for the unaccompanied minor. |
