This article examines multiracial children&#8217;s level of poverty within single-mother families to identify the degree to which they may stand out from their monoracial peers. Using data from the 2006\u20132008 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.census.gov\/acs\/www\/\" target=\"_blank\">American Community Survey<\/a> (3-year estimates), we explore the level of racial disparities in child poverty between monoracial White children and monoracial and multiracial children of color.
