Characteristics and Experiences of Low-Income Hispanic Families and Households [Webinar]

Wed, Feb 11, 2015 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM EST

Please join the National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families for a webinar, which will answer two fundamental questions regarding low-income Hispanic families: how are they formed and structured, and what do those households look like? Respondents will address the implications of this research for programs and policy.

Opening remarks:
- Ann Rivera, Ph.D., Office of Planning, Research & Evaluation, an office of the Administration for Children & Families in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Presenters will discuss findings from the Center's research reports, Family Structure and Family Formation among Low-Income Hispanics in the U.S. and The Complex and Varied Households of Low-Income Hispanic Children:
-Lina Guzman, Ph.D., National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families
-Michael López, Ph.D., National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families
-Elizabeth Wildsmith, Ph.D., National Research Center on Hispanic Children & Families

Respondents will then discuss the implications of these findings for programs and policy:
-Richard J. Noriega of AVANCE, Inc.
-Charisse Johnson, Office of Family Assistance, an office of the Administration for Children & Families in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Time is also reserved for a question-and-answer session. Please join us (and spread the news to your networks!) for an engaging conversation about this research, and how we can use it to best move the field forward for low-income Hispanic children and families.
