Abstract
Evans, K. M. and Sejuit, A. L. (E & S) provide a comprehensive, compelling, and up-to-date multicultural and social justice competencies training manual for career and rehabilitation professionals in this second edition of their book, Gaining Cultural Competence in Career Counseling (2021). The authors’ stated purpose for writing the book is the integration of multicultural and social justice competencies with that of career development. Although there are courses in multicultural counseling and career development, a need remains to train professionals to combine and unify the associated competencies. This 240-page paperback assists professionals to synthesize the career and multicultural competencies often presented separately to close the existing gap in training and practice of career development.
期刊介绍:
Rehabilitation Counseling Bulletin (RCB) publishes articles on rehabilitation counseling with a major emphasis on data-based research reports, although other types of contributions to professional knowledge in rehabilitation counseling will be considered. Examples include articles that explain an innovative technique or application, point/ counterpoint debates on a current controversy challenging the profession, or insightful essays on an important issue. Contributions of these kinds may be considered for a special section of RCB. Article topics cover a wide range—from ethical dilemmas related to counseling clients with HIV/AIDS to clinical problem solving in micro–case management.
