- The Central American Minors Program was an American immigration policy established by the Obama administration on November 2014. The program allowed lawfully present parents in the United States the opportunity to request a refugee or parole status for their children residing in the Northern Triangle: El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. The combination of being a transshipment point and the increase of gang violence in the Northern Triangle caused its region's insecurity. Among other countries in Central America, the Northern Triangle's gang violence is ranked among the worst in the world. Due to an influx of unaccompanied minors entering the United States from Central America and being victims of violent crimes during the journey, the Obama administration initiated programs that partnered with Central American governments to combat the violence that influences minors to migrate to the United States. However, the violence in the Northern Triangle only escalated in 2015, prompting the Obama administration to expand The Central American Minors Program in 2016. The parole portion of the Central American Minors Program was terminated in August 2017, and new applications for the refugee portion of the program were no longer accepted as of November 9, 2017.
