As the multiracial population in the United States continues to rise, new models for our understanding of mixed-race children and their conception of racial identity must be developed. A wide divide exists between academics who research biracial identity and the everyday world of parents and practitioners who raise and work with mixed-race children. This book aims to fill that gap by providing an extensive synthesis of the existing research in the field and a model for better understanding the unique process of racial identity development for mixed-race children. Raising Biracial Children provides parents, educators, social workers, and anyone interested in multiracial issues with an accessible framework for understanding healthy mixed-race identity development and translating those findings into practical care-giving strategies.
