My Diversity Course details:
In this course, I learned more about multicultural helping, the influence of socio-identities such as, race, ethnicity, religion, gender, socioeconomic status, and sexual orientation on individuals functioning concerns.
During my HMSV 346: Diversity Issues course, I exercised the following skills:
- Active listening to gain a broader awareness of cultures, values and identities
- Effective communication to openly discuss uncomfortable topics and maintain respect for others
- Comprehension in understanding the history of diverse clients
- Application in immersing myself with a community I did not identify with and gain new perspectives
