Ask an Advisor Answers

Question: Hello Advisor,

I am a graduate student in California and I am writing a thesis that focuses on planning a cultural competency workshop (4-5 hours) for community health workers. I could use guidance on how and where to start. I have been looking for information on how to plan a cultural competency workshop but the information is either dated or difficult to find. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Answer:

Hi Danielle,

Thanks for your question. Please take a look at chapters 28 and 29, within our Learn A Skill section. Those chapters are fairly recent. Also, you might want to ask around your communities to identify specialists in cultural competency training who might be willing to advise/mentor you as your work proceeds.
