Unaccompanied refugee minors are also accommodated as part of child and youth welfare. Numerous changes arise for them when they come of age. If necessary, child and youth welfare is responsible for young people up to the age of 27. There is even a legal right up to the age of 21. According to the Federal Association of Unaccompanied Underage Refugees, help for young refugees often ends at the age of 18. When they reach the age of majority, guardianship ends, the parents' right to reunification expires, and protection requirements in the right of residence that protect against deportation are no longer applicable . At the same time, the procedural ability occurs in asylum and residence law procedures. In some cases, the young adults then have to move to a community shelter for refugees or even homeless people because the youth welfare service has ended.
