ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Loyola University Chicago
This study explores the parental support first-generation Latinas have received, and recognizes the skills, knowledge, and various forms of support that Latinx parents can and have provided their daughters when they seek a college education. Through a community cultural wealth framework, this study adds to the current literature on Latina and first-generation college students and specifically challenges the deficit approach that is often used when studying these student and parent populations. Furthermore, this study aids in better understanding the experiences of first-generation Latinas who receive parental support in ways that are outside of the traditional definition, and coins Existence Capital as vital to Latinas' college success. Through the participants' testimonios, the findings respond to the study's research question; How do first-generation Latina college students narrate the support they receive(d) from their parents? Ultimately, confirming that the support that parents of first-generation Latinas provide is highly influential to their college and overall success.
