Cultural Awareness

This cultural awareness workshop is designed to explore elements of culture with the aim of providing a foundation for the development of cultural competence.  This half day workshop will define culture and present models which will aide participants in their work with people from different cultural backgrounds than their own. There will be an opportunity to explore one’s own cultural identity as this is said to be critical to the achievement of comfort with the cultural identity of others
