Generally, as people move from one culture to another, the former culture always makes a cultural imprint on the new one. Attempts to create a clean break from the former culture are often difficult if not impossible. This is particularly true in terms of values and cultural beliefs. The immigrants' perception towards the purpose and nature of public welfare is no exception to this rule, and, as a result, their attitude towards the issues of welfare utilization is often influenced by the recipients' cultural background. This is an important factor that needs to be taken into consideration in the formulation and operation of an effective case management system geared at an ethnic clientele. This paper provides a general description of a model implemented in Washington State, USA. This model attempts to address both the issue of cultural sensitivity of case management and the need of transitional support services for refugee recipients once they leave the welfare system.

- Journal article citation:
- Population Trends, 78, Winter 1994, pp.23-33.
- Publisher:
- Office for National Statistics
Looks at contrasts in the geographical distribution of people from the white and ethnic minority groups within Great Britain. Begins by describing regional variations in ethnic composition and maps the distribution of ethnic minority groups at the local authority district scale. Demonstrates that most people from the white ethnic group live in wards with very small populations from ethnic minority groups, while people from ethnic minority groups tend to be found where the share of minorities in the resident population is relatively high. Reveals a very marked degree of spatial segregation of ethnic minority groups at a neighbourhood level. Lists the local authority districts in which the degree of segregation of people from ethnic minority groups relative to the rest of the population is greatest.
