Following up on a 1972 study evaluating the characteristics of African American families that have allowed them to survive, adapt, and grow stronger, this volume offers parents, activists, service providers, and policy makers possible solutions to social problems experienced by the African American family by examining the range of African American familial experience rather than focusing on the nonworking poor. Analysis is provided concerning a number of previously unpublicized studies that have focused on the strengths of families of color since the early 1970s. Lacks an index.
