Definition

Youth and young adults ages 14 to 24 who are immigrants or live in immigrant families. 

Youth and young adults who are immigrants or live in immigrant families is defined as youth and young adults who are themselves foreign-born or reside with at least one foreign-born parent. Foreign-born is defined as either a U.S. citizen by naturalization or not a citizen of the U.S.  The foreign-born status of youth and young adults not living with either parent is based solely on the status of the young adult and no other household member. Youth and young adults living in subfamilies are linked to their parent(s) and not the householder.
