SWK 265 - Understanding Diversity for Social Work Practice Credits: 3

Helps students develop tools for increased understanding of and sensitivity to human diversity and cultures different from their own. Students are asked to identify areas where differing customs or values could have an impact. The generalist approach to social work practice, which encompasses the ethic sensitive model for intervention and management of human diversity issues, is emphasized. Includes work with, but not limited to, populations of people who are oppressed due to race, culture, religion, ability, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or other minority status groups in society.
