Each year the Cross Cultural Health Care Program provides cultural competency trainings, assessments and consulting in numerous health and social service settings around the country. We target crucial arenas of a health care system including the administrators who coordinate the delivery of care and the policy-makers who regulate the form and manner of health care delivery and the front-line staff and providers who provide direct services. Our services are customized to the needs of the organization to maximize relevancy and effectiveness. Our programs seek to enhance: - understanding of one's own culture - awareness and acceptance of differences - knowledge and skills for navigating the dynamics of difference Learn more about our programs and services using the links to the right.
