Hogan, Dennis P.; And Others
Social Forces, v68 n3 p797-812 Mar 1990
Surveys American mothers, both Black and White, on issues of kin networks, childcare, and financial support. Confirms Black mothers have better access to relatives for financial support and childcare, though almost one-third of Blacks had no kin network. Network support insufficiently met childcare needs of many mothers. (Author/TES)
