The Hispanic population represents one of the largest, most demographically diverse populations in the country, at over 62 million people and a quarter of all U.S. children. With the U.S. Census projecting that 28 percent of the U.S. population will be of Hispanic heritage by 2060, it is more important than ever to invest in the futures of Latino families and children: Those futures are indelibly linked to the future of the nation. In supporting Latino families with children, Child Trends’ interdisciplinary team adopts a strength-based, culturally responsive approach to our research that explores the heterogeneity of the Latino population while underscoring the importance of social determinants in influencing child well-being.
