Describe the level of cultural competence you have. What experiences had particularly shaped your views of your own culture and the culture of others? Cite literature and use relevant theoretical concepts in your analysis.
Discuss how what you learned about cultures and families relates to your previous and current work experience. What groups and culture do you want to learn more about so that you might more effectively provide social work services?
Describe any population with which it may be hard for you to work. Analyze the reasons for this. State whether this is something that you feel that you should overcome, and whether you should do something to make it easier for you to work with this population.
Describe what more you want to learn about other cultures and diverse families. Discuss some of the ways that knowledge could be effectively acquired. You may want to document your statement with information you have acquired about certain populations, societal needs, and resources for developing cultural competence.
List three to five actions that are reasonable and feasible for you to do that will increase your cultural competence. How compatible are your planned actions with social work values and ethics?
