Complete the Diversity in Practice Readiness Survey located in Tevera corresponding to this assignment.

Navigate to the threaded discussion and respond to the following discussion questions:

Discuss how you can apply Cross-Cultural competencies in clinical work as described by Lee in the article above. Identify and explain at least one key idea from the article and give an example of how you can apply it in practice.

Identify and discuss one key contradiction in the Cultural Competency approach from the article by Johnson and Munch. Discuss the implications for social work practice and cultural competency training.

Assess and discuss whether the cultural humility theoretical approach as described by Dunso would be helpful for resolving misunderstandings related to cultural diversity at your agency. Provide one example from the reading to support your position.

Finally, since some cultural ideas can be harmful (cannibalism, genital mutilation, spouse abuse, revenge killing, etc.) discuss how you can meet people where they are with their cultural beliefs without supporting all of them or maybe even helping them to explore the possibility of changing one or more? Give an example of what this might look like? How does this affect your view of cultural humility or competency?
