Pathways to Permanence for Black, Asian and Mixed Ethnicity Children

Julie Selwyn, David Quinton, Perlita Harris, Dinithi Wijedasa, Shameem Nawaz, Marsha Wood · British Association for Adoption and Fostering

This study examined minority ethnic children’s care pathways in three English local authorities, comparing decisions and outcomes with those of white children, particularly around permanent placements. The publisher description verifies a comparative research study. Detailed findings and numerical estimates from the book have not been reviewed for this record.

Limitations: Publisher description only. Three local authorities and wider care pathways, not exclusively completed adoptions. It is not established from this description whether children supplied evidence directly. Related programme papers use overlapping data. Published by BAAF, an adoption-sector organisation; publication is distinct from research conduct.
