Embracing Cultural Competency: A Roadmap for Nonprofit Capacity Builders
$7.95
No “how-to” manual exists on cultural competency. And, compared to other topics in nonprofit management, little exists on the skills and strategies needed to address racism and inequity. Building cultural competency is an ongoing journey that nonprofit leaders choose to take because they know the end result will be a more inclusive, connected, and effective organization. Patricia St. Onge and her contributing authors help readers grapple with the urgent issues that can transform capacity builders into change agents in the nonprofit sector.
- Discover a framework to help discuss issues related to cultural competency and learn about the methods, practices and values that define it
- Encounter a mosaic of perspectives surrounding cultural competency through interviews, peer dialogue and personal insights from contributing authors who represent five major ethnic communities.
- Understand the complexities within ethnic communities and gain insights into the nature of institutionalized racism.
- Reinforce the importance of examining and dismantling institutional inequities.
