School of Social Work Professor David Hollister and Ph.D. student Hoa T. Nguyen were presenters at the 2010 National Refugee and Immigrant Conference in Chicago on October 8. They held a session about their findings from a study on the involvement of immigrant children in child welfare and special education in Minnesota

The results of this unique, cross-sectional study have implications for improving the understanding of the experiences of immigrant and refugee children in special education and for creating better policies and practices to support them.
