The evidence of worsening life conditions, concentration of poverty, and high degree of African American segregation in urban areas has led to a growing interest in how neighborhood contexts effect child development and parenting behavior. This study attempts to understand development in context by focusing on the role of neighborhood influences early in child development and to shed light on the pathways by which family and community resources influence development.
