The effects of early residential instability on children’s language development

초록/요약

The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between early childhood residential mobility and kindergarten readiness in literacy, and whether the relationship is explained by high quality prekindergarten programs in an urban school district. This study attempted to address policy concerns on kindergarten readiness of residentially mobile children who are likely to experience unstable housing situations and limited educational opportunities during childhood.. Results showed that there was a significant relationship between early childhood residential mobility and children’s kindergarten readiness scores, and this relationship might be mediated by high quality prekindergarten programs. Based on the key findings, this study offered several important implications for future social work research and practice.
