Racial/ethnic differences in positive childhood experiences across a national sample

CONCLUSIONS: The information from this study highlights the negative disparities borne by racial/ethnic minority populations. Findings can be used to inform policymakers, program developers, and stakeholders on where to target interventions and how to bring together families and communities to not only confront adversity in childhood, but also to leverage community and family-level assets to create PCEs for all children.PMID:33639558 | DOI:10.1016/j.chiabu.2021.105012
