A forum for the presentation of research and policy initiatives in the areas of education, health, public policy, and the socioeconomic causes and effects of poverty, the Journal of Children & Poverty promotes intellectual debate and new ideas that will impact policy and practice in the fields of child and family welfare. The Journal of Children & Poverty is a publication of the Taylor & Francis Group and the Institute for Children and Poverty. The journal targets a cross-disciplinary audience that includes policy makers, academics, and community leaders.
Recent issues of JCP have included articles that probe an array of topics: childcare selection among rural welfare-to-work participants; models of education for at-risk youth; orphans and vulnerable children in a group foster homes program in Burkina Faso; and vocabulary acquisition for children living in poverty.
