 Dual Language Learners (DLLs)—students from homes 
 in which a language other than only English is spoken—are a vastly heter
 ogeneous student population. Indeed\, DLLs’ home and English language pr
 oficiency vary widely. Reading in English builds on English language skil
 ls\, so it may seem unsurprising that DLLs who are in the process of acqui
 ring English language proficiency tend to persistently show lower English 
 reading achievement than their English-proficient peers. However\, it is a
 lso the case that the vast majority of DLLs are U.S.-born and have been in
 structed in predominantly English-only contexts since formal school entry.
  Thus\, the national English reading achievement profile of DLLs raises se
 rious questions of equity\, centered on the extent to which DLLs’ langua
 ge needs in the service of reading achievement are effectively being met. 
 In this talk\, I discuss the many parallels between the underlying process
  of English reading development among English-proficient students and DLLs
  acquiring English proficiency while attending to unique developmental con
 siderations for best supporting DLLs’ reading development and achievemen

 se of students from linguistically diverse and low-income homes. Her resea
 rch is anchored on reading development\, with a focus on the central role 
 of supporting students’ language comprehension to mitigate later reading
  comprehension difficulties. Her most recent work examines the intersectio
 n of language and special education status. Jeannette was appointed to the
