Developing Cross-Cultural Competence: A Guide for Working with Children and Their Families

Suitable as both a textbook and a reference for practitioners, this text is designed to enhance the cross-cultural competence of the full range of professionals providing educational, health care, and social services to families of children who have, or are at risk for, disabilities. It is also directed toward the administrators, politicians, and policy makers who influence delivery of these services in the U.S. It has been expanded and fully updated throughout, and now features a new chapter on families with South Asian roots.
