Ethnic and religious differences in the healthcare use of children receiving care and support in Wales - ExChange webinar

Children receiving care and support (CRCS) from the child welfare system represent a vulnerable subpopulation who often face complex and multifaceted challenges, usually stemming from abuse, neglect or disability. Despite the significant health disparities associated with this group, limited research has explored how these outcomes differ across ethnic and religious identities.

In this webinar, Yongchao Jing, Research Associate in CASCADE (Children’s Social Care Research and Development Centre), Cardiff University will address this gap by examining ethnic and religious differences in healthcare utilisation among CRCS children using comprehensive linked administrative data from Wales. 

Yongchao is a Research Associate on the Health and Care Research Wales funded project Ethnic and Religious Inequalities in Children Welfare (ERICA) exploring ethnic inequality in children’s social care by applying complex data linkage techniques with administrative data in Wales within 
Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) databank.
