Street-level bureaucrats implement public policy in daily face-to-face encounters with individuals. Through the sequence of decisions they make in these interactions, street-level bureaucrats govern the individuals they interact with. But, a lot is unknown about these interactions and the governance that occurs within them. This article investigates the encounters between street-level bureaucrats who implement immigration policy and Central American children who crossed the U.S.–Mexico border without their parents. Using process mapping and content analysis, the article seeks to determine the points at which street-level bureaucrats interact with unaccompanied migrant children, the agencies these street-level bureaucrats represent, and the responsibilities they have in the process. The findings of this study highlight the complexity through which street-level bureaucrats govern this vulnerable population and the import of their decisions, which construct the experience and outcome for unaccompanied migrant children.

Refugee migration is a very visible and growing wicked problem. In this conceptual article, we outline a framework that identifies types of policies, levels of government (in refugee receiving countries), and causes for refugee migration as factors that create this wicked problem. Many refugee migration policies in Northern countries are mainly limited to being controlling at the national level and palliative at the local level. We further highlight a serious lack of true governing policies that address the push factors that drive people away from unpalatable political and/or economic circumstances in their home countries. Focusing solely on refugee policies may be practical but is not productive when the larger environmental context that prompts refugee migration is ignored in the longer term.
