Abstract
ABSTRACT Despite model minority stereotypes, low-income U.S. Asians experience difficulties derived from poverty and their racial positionality. We conducted scoping review to systematically understand and synthesize the current literature on young low-income U.S. Asians. From 22 studies, five categories of challenges emerged including perceived discrimination. Factors associated with current challenges and strengths of young low-income U.S. Asians, and implications for social work are also examined. This work disputes model minority stereotypes and highlights the heterogeneity of the group. Fragmented scholarly understanding on U.S. Asians is also discussed.
