New report: The health of older children and young people subject to care proceedings in Wales

The health of older children and young people subject to care proceedings in Wales

A new report has been published by the Centre for Child and Family Justice research (CFJ). Led by Dr Lucy Griffiths, and part of a series by the Family Justice Data Partnership (a collaboration between the universities of Lancaster and Swansea), this report provides an overview of the health and health service use of older children and young people (aged 10–17) involved in section 31 care proceedings in Wales. It is part of a series of work that aims to help build a better understanding of the reasons why older children and young people are being brought into care proceedings.
