young immigrants in the u.s. have diverse experiences and rich cultural, linguistic, and community assets. research shows that young immigrants leverage their cultural wealth to develop and work toward their academic and career goals.
to help adults better serve this diverse group, 2022年世界杯预选赛分组 partnered with the annie e. casey foundation to identify the academic and career resources available to young immigrants. we gathered evidence from existing research as well as from the people directly engaged in this work: service providers at immigrant-serving organizations and, importantly, young immigrants themselves. insights gathered from our conversations led to this practical, evidence-based guide.
