Racial harassment -- Acculturation -- Translation issues -- Support systems -- Machismo -- Acting out child -- Debriefing
Summary
How can non-Latina/o's work effectively cross-culturally? The first demonstration shows Mary working with a child who has been racially harassed. We see an ineffective model followed by a culturally sensitive approach, including parental feedback on the session. Enedina shows how to work with acculturation issues and helping the child build on cultural strengths. Luis's demonstration focuses on the acting-out child, listening and then working with cultural strengths for problem resolution. Special attention given to working with families and providing effective translation for non-English speaking clients
