Synopsis
CULTURALLY COMPETENT PRACTICE, 1/e broke new ground in cultural competence by presenting a model for understanding, measuring, and evaluating cultural competence. In the 2/e, this model as well as the book's practical, experiential approach and numerous exercises continue to make it informative and accessible to students at all levels. This second edition contains new, contributed chapters about diverse populations. The book not only presents cultural differences, but also explains why cultural competence is important to human service professionals, and demonstrates how to develop skills necessary to become culturally competent.
