Course Description
Cultural Diversity and the Helping
Professions is the first workshop based on the
all-day Diversity and Cultural Relations training of years past. Its primary
purpose is to bring out the ways in which an understanding and appreciation of
social and cultural diversity can help members of helping professions to
effectively address some of the most difficult problems that they confront and
to better serve their clients. A key feature of the course is a discussion of features common to
socially and culturally diverse communities.
Learning objectives include the ability to:
Ø
Identify and explain
several kinds of diversity among people.

universality and diversity.
