Understanding Latino Children and Families’ Well-being Requires Data Disaggregated by Birth Within or Outside the United States

Nearly 1 in 5 people in the United States are Hispanic, and Latino children and families’ well-being varies according to a number of factors—including whether they were born inside the United States or outside it, in their country of heritage. Disaggregated data that compare the lived experiences and outcomes of Hispanic children and families born in the Unites States to those born outside the country are needed to understand disparities in education, child care and health care access, employment opportunities, and other key areas that affect U.S. Hispanic children and families’ well-being.
