Abstract | In this report, Lisseth Rojas-Flores highlights the work of scholars within the Foundation's Young Scholars Program (YSP) related to Latino-U.S. citizen children of immigrants. Children of immigrants are growing up in a unique historical context in the United States -- a time marked by aggressive immigration policies and practices. For over 10 years, studies conducted by YSP scholars have focused on the well-being of children of immigrants and their families. This paper highlights the work of YSP scholars: Drs. Joanna Dreby, Kalina Brabeck, Cecilia Ayón, Christia Spears Brown, and Lisseth Rojas-Flores. Their research examines the impact of immigration enforcement practices and policies on Latino school-aged children within family units whose members have both authorized and unauthorized immigration status. Taken together, their work explores the assets and vulnerabilities of Latino children of immigrants. Further, this research has implications to improve policies to better address the best interests of Latino citizen children. (ERIC). |
