This research brief, from the National Research Center on Hispanic Children and Families – led by Abt Associates and Child Trends – provides a national portrait of low-income Hispanic families in the U.S. Having a better understanding of these families will help programs and policymakers in their efforts to assist these families. The brief uses recent nationally-representative data to describe the relationship and childbearing histories of low-income Hispanic men and women aged 15 to 44. Importantly, we distinguish by nativity — i.e., born in the U.S. versus in some other country — as family formation patterns vary greatly by nativity, and these differences are obscured when Hispanics are examined as a whole.
