Record Number Of Hispanic Children Living In Poverty

Roy,

           Those are really sad statistics; what can someone do? Then remember that the Latino's are taking all of the American people's jobs. This is something near and dear to my heart as I am Latina and thankfully have a good education and am providing for my children to have one as well. That is so sad. Are there programs out there to help these people?

Roy,  these are sad statistics.  I am seeing similar stats for other ethic groups and small towns in PA, OH and NY.  Tough times ahead.

Roy, it's just wrong for ANY child to have to live in poverty - black, white, brown, purple, pink, or whatever! May the Lord stir our hearts to reach out to help these children!

Roy,

My heart bleeds for the children of all nationalities. I was at a presentation a few weeks ago. The presenter said that the National demographics show Hispanics is the largest population, followed by Asians, then Blacks, and in the bottom of the bar charts, barely above the line is Caucasians. The fact that we have lots of mixed races accounts for unknown numbers and Muslems don't put themselves into any category.

With the number of people unemployed, and the way our world has changed, there's too many people living in poverty for all races. My heart goes out to the children who ultimately suffer because of our economy and lack of good education in many areas of the United States.
