    The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced an amendment to a previous statement from April 28, 2009. This change allows the Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement more flexibility by enabling them to redelegate certain responsibilities assigned under the William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008. The amendment is effective immediately and aims to enhance the management of these duties. All other details in the original statement remain the same.

    The government is letting a person in charge of helping refugees share their duties with others to make things work better. But it's not very clear about how they should do that sharing, which might make it a bit confusing.
