Beginning with a Foreword by Derald Wing Sue, this unique handbook offers a broad, comprehensive view of multiculturalism that is inclusive and reflective.

A cross-section of diversity characteristics and best practice guidelines
Examination of detailed, developmentally relevant competency categories
Resources and exercises designed for practitioners at various levels of experience and expertise

Designed to help readers enhance general multicultural competency and their ability to provide services to the populations specifically described, this thought-provoking text will prove useful in facilitating ongoing dialogues about multicultural competence in all its variations.
