“…In order to address these challenges, it is imperative to develop inclusive practices that consider linguistic diversity and cultural beliefs and that provide accessible resources. Culturally appropriate explanations and support from professionals are essential in overcoming these barriers (Kizildag et al, 2023).

This article explores the intersectionality of cultural and linguistic diversity and having a child with a disability, highlighting the unique challenges faced by parents from a minority ethnic background at this intersection. With increasing globalization, diverse and multicultural populations have become more prevalent, necessitating inclusive systems that address the unique needs of minority ethnic groups. Understanding the experiences of parents at the intersection of cultural and linguistic diversity and having a child with a disability is crucial for providing equitable access to education and support. This paper provides an overview of studies conducted in the UK, focusing on the challenges faced by culturally and linguistically diverse families from a minority ethnic background with children with disabilities and emphasizing factors such as religion, cultural beliefs, language barriers, and unique insights into specific populations. The findings emphasize the need for a comprehensive understanding of the intersectionality of cultural and linguistic diversity and disability to create inclusive educational environments that empower all children, irrespective of their cultural background or abilities.

Parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) play a significant role in determining their children’s service choices. Recent studies have identified both explicit and implicit factors that influence their service decisions. However, in these studies, recruitment efforts did not particularly target culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) minority parents. Hence, the purpose of this systematic review was to assess factors related to service choices among CALD minority parents of children with ASD. Guided by the PRISMA protocol, the present study reviewed 31 studies on factors associated with CALD minority parents’ service selection, and 20 factors were identified. This study provides valuable insights into the service choices and obstacles encountered by CALD minority parents who have children diagnosed with ASD. By comprehending these challenges, future researchers might strive toward mitigating discrepancies in the availability of resources and assistance for children with ASD and their families from various backgrounds.
