Abstract: The article focuses on the family-empowerment model for supporting minoritized, dual language learner (DLL) children, specifically highlighting the case of Mateo, a 4-year-old Latinx child in a Head Start program. Despite Mateo's advanced preacademic skills, he faces challenges in socioemotional development, leading to his referral for early childhood special education (ECSE) services. The authors argue that culturally responsive practices and family involvement are crucial in recognizing and nurturing the strengths of DLL children like Mateo, who are often misidentified as having disabilities due to implicit biases in educational settings. The proposed model emphasizes collaboration between families and educators to enhance children's learning experiences and outcomes, ultimately benefiting the broader community.
