Abstract	This study examines difficulties amid the COVID-19 pandemic in raising children and meeting their educational needs among Korean immigrant parents of children with disabilities, giftedness, and/or limited English proficiency living in the U.S. The Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression analysis examined the associations between the 48 participants' perceived difficulties meeting their children's educational needs, parental stress, and parents' resilience and social support. Additionally, basic interpretive qualitative analysis was conducted for the 18 survey participants who provided data via an open-ended survey response. Results determined that participant difficulties in assisting with their children's educational needs were associated with increased parental stress. Participants also described lack of resources and support, language and communication barriers, internal family conflicts, and developmental concerns about the child. Implications for practice and future research are discussed. (As Provided).
