Multicultural Social Work In Canada: Working With Diverse Ethno-Racial Communities

This analysis offers a starting point for readers to reflect on their own experiences and assumptions of multicultural practice with diverse ethno-racial communities. Major themes include differential processes in seeking help and the importance of taking into account a community's history or an individual's age, gender, acculturation, or socio-economic status when developing strategies for social work in multicultural settings.

Cultural diversity is often the source of confusion and discomfort for those working in human services. This book gives practical advice and knowledge for increasing your client's comfort level, as well as your own!The book is divided into two sections, the first of which deals with cultural diversity and ethnicity in general terms. The second section contains several chapters, each of which is devoted to particular ethnic group providing a quick and easy reference for those employed in the human service field.I learned a lot from this book although it's not an easy read which is the reason I only gave it four stars.
