We are students currently taking Professor Sue O’Donnell’s Adolescent Development class and our team is doing some unofficial research on the lived experiences of Latino adolescents growing up under the poverty line and how that has affected their life outcomes.
Did your identity as a Latino adolescent make you feel other than those around you? How did living under the poverty line affect the formation of your self-identity? Have you been able to achieve your goals?
If this resonates with your (or your friend’s) experiences, we want to hear about it! We want to make sure we are representing your experiences accurately. Please fill out this quick survey. All responses are anonymous.
