Study Finds Young Hispanics Face Obstacles to Integration

A snapshot of Hispanic youngsters- the fastest growing group in the United States by age and ethnicity - concludes that the

obstacles and inequalities they face today "may hinder the broader integration of Latinos into the U.S. society if left unattended."

If those problems are addressed, though, the authors of the study say, "we can expect that over time Latinos will assimilate" just

as earlier immigrant groups did, with an accompanying rise in their social and economic status.
