Abstract	This fact sheet explores key sociodemographic characteristics of immigrant and native-born parents with children ages 0 to 4 and 5 to 10 in the United States. It draws from a broader analysis the Migration Policy Institute's (MPI's) National Center on Immigrant Integration Policy (NCIIP) conducted on immigrant and U.S.-born parents with children under age 18. Given the needs of parents differ depending on their children's age, and many service systems align their efforts to particular age groups, the overarching analysis segments data on parent characteristics to reflect those with children between ages 0 to 4, 5 to 10, 11 to 13, and 14 to 17. The information presented in this fact sheet aims to inform efforts to better understand and more equitably address the integration needs of the country's immigrant families--and more specifically, the efforts of early childhood, health and social services, K-12, postsecondary, and adult education systems. In each of these systems, a two-generation lens is critical both to create more effective service designs and to realize the heightened returns of two-generation-focused investments that lift parents' trajectories and empower them to support their children's school readiness and long-term educational success.
