Abstract

Since 2002, the University of Missouri has engaged in a continuous dialogue across the region on how to facilitate the smooth and lasting integration of Latino newcomers in Missouri. The dialogue is facilitated by an annual Conference, Cambio de Colores (Change of Colors) in Missouri, where scholars, practitioners, policy makers, and the newcomers meet to collaboratively address the challenges and opportunities resulting from the dramatic changes many communities experience. University faculty are conducting research designed to answer questions we are asked every year: How do Latino newcomers get by and get ahead? How do the communities where they settle benefit from their economic and social integration? A three year research project will focus on the processes of integration and economic development taking place in the new settlement communities of Missouri. The experiences of three distinct settlement patterns will be explored.
