Doman Lum's book helps students understand the pioneering multicultural counseling competence literature and to build from this foundation a culturally competent social work perspective. Culturally Competent Practice breaks new ground in cultural competency by presenting a model for understanding, measuring, and evaluating cultural competency. The book's practical, experiential approach and numerous exercises make it an excellent choice for courses at all levels. Lum goes beyond the usual and obvious differences as they relate to people of color to explain why cultural competency is important to human service professionals, and to demonstrate how to develop the skills necessary to become culturally competent--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.
