Answer to Question 1

In 2001, the National Association of Social Workers approved the following standards for cultural competence in social work practice:

Self-awareness-Social workers shall seek to develop an understanding of their own personal, cultural values and beliefs as one way of appreciating the importance of multicultural identities in the lives of people.
Cross-cultural knowledge-Social workers shall have and continue to develop specialized knowledge and understanding about the history, traditions, values, family systems, and artistic expressions of major client groups that they serve.
Cross-cultural skills-Social workers shall use appropriate methodological approaches, skills, and techniques that reflect the workers' understanding of the role of culture in the helping process.
