Description

This course addresses what it means to be marginalized and presents information on the history and current status of various vulnerable populations domestically and globally. The course highlights the economic, political, and environmental factors that impact marginalization on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Dimensions of diversity, as well as theories of marginalization are examined. In addition, cultural competence in engaging, assessing, and intervening with client systems are applied through case studies. (3 units; Fall)
