Inhaltsangabe

This text helps the reader to understand the pioneering multicultural counselling competence literature, and to build from this foundation a culturally competent social work perspective. The book takes a practical, experiential approach, and includes numerous exercises. Doman Lum goes beyond the usual differences, as they relate to people of colour, to explain why cultural competency is important to human service professionals, and to demonstrate how to develop the skills necessary to become culturally competent. These include skills such as contact, problem identification, assessment, intervention, service delivery planning and implementation, and cultural skill research. The author takes a deeper look at more involved cultural issues, such as sexual preference and socioeconomic differences.
