Furthermore, explain how you would respond to Aaron when he discusses his family's rejection of his desire to maintain his cultural roots.
In your explanation, identify specific skills you would employ as a multiculturally sensitive social worker.
Support your response with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.
