Child Trends
This report presents a rich and nuanced statistical portrait of America's Latino children, drawn from the latest nationally-representative data. It is a complex picture. Some facets will be familiar, while others are less well known. All have important economic and social implications, particularly with respect to education as the pathway to fulfilling aspirations and to full participation in the life of the nation. [Child Trends thanks the Televisa Foundation for its support of the Child Trends Hispanic Institute and its efforts to promote the well-being of America's Hispanic children.]
