Immigrant parents face significant barriers as they try to engage with
their children's early educational experiences, including greatly
restricted access for many due to limited English proficiency and
functional literacy. Parental engagement is critical for young
children's early cognitive and socioemotional development, and for their
participation in programs that are designed to support early learning.
Reducing the barriers to parent engagement in early childhood education
and care (ECEC) programs would encourage school success, and help many
young children of immigrants close the gaps in kindergarten readiness
with their native peers.
