In this webinar we will discuss ways to integrate cultural competence and community inclusion into the services that are provided by your organization. Oftentimes, services are delivered to communities, with little attention to integrate their cultural practices and community norms. When communities are not responsive to the services that are being offered, it leads to a disconnect between those providing the service and those expected to receive them. This webinar will present creative ways to engage community members by integrating their cultural practices into the services that are being offered.
