Immigrant Children
Young children from immigrant families are less likely than children of parents born in the United States to be enrolled in early-childhood education and other nonparental child-care arrangements, a report by the Washington-based Center for Law and Social Policy says.
Poverty, nontraditional work schedules for parents, and parents’ limited education are a few of the reasons such children are not participating in center-based programs, it says.
