Socioeconomic status (SES) is a significant contributor to family health and is reflected in family income, occupations, and educational attainment. Many parents in poorer families work two to three jobs to provide basic resources for their families, and yet this reduces a prime resource for adolescents and children—parental presence (Herrenkohl, Herrenkohl, & Egolf, 1994). Poverty affects a larger portion of ethnic minority families than white families. Low family income and lack of health insurance are resource deficits for many ethnic minority families, thereby contributing to negative health outcomes (National Center for Health Statistics [NCHS], 2002).
