The future success of our nation depends on our ability to ensure all children have the chance to be successful. Yet, in the United States today, racial inequities remain deep, systemic and stubbornly persistent, and children of color lack the opportunities and support that they need to thrive.

American Indian kids are almost three times as likely to lack health insurance and more than twice as likely to live in neighborhoods with more limited resources.
