Somali Cultural Guide—Building Capacity to Strengthen the Well-Being of Immigrant Families and Their Children: A Prevention Strategy
Date Published: 2010

This is intended as an overview of selected factors that are critical to understanding child and family environments of Somali immigrants. Through research and field interviews, this guide represents general themes for the Somali culture and family dynamics. It is not meant to be exhaustive or representative of every family or group. Each family and child is coming from a unique and particular experience and should be approached in this way.
