Identifying Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Human Services

In this conceptual framework and literature review, completed in partnership with OPRE and the Urban Institute, research on racial and ethnic differences and disparities are synthetized with the service delivery of six ACF programs, including TANF, Child Support, Child Care and Developmental Fund, Head Start, and the Family and Youth Service Bureau programs for runaway and homeless youth. The findings highlight the large body of work on racial and ethnic differences in access, services, and treatment.
