SUMMARY The American university community, the context within which social work education is conducted, has a clear goal of education. It is also the workplace for a diverse group of students, faculty and staff. The community is defined and the author suggests that social work educators have unique contributions to offer in the development of a “just” university community.

SUMMARY Effective agency-based multicultural social work practice requires skillful multicultural assessment and intervention. Multicultural social work practice models and intervention strategies are needed to help train professionals to effectively intervene with clients who are culturally different; however, social work supervisors and trainers in agency settings often lack opportunities for learning how to train agency practitioners for successful multicultural intervention. This paper introduces an eight-step communication process model that social work agency supervisors and training units may use to help social workers become more effective multicultural practitioners. The first three steps of the model-acknowledge cultural differences, know yourself, and know other cultures-are discussed and accompanied by experiential exercises. The exercises will help sensitize practitioners to their owe culture-bound beliefs, help them identify cultural values of others and enhance multicultural practice skills.

SUMMARY This article discusses research on the difficulties of practicing social work ie a multicultural and multiethnic context. The research is based on critical incidents involving 40 social workers in the most “ethnic” public social service centers in Montreal in 1990-1992. The most significant incidents of culture shock between workers from a developed western-type society and clients from developing non-western societies relate to a different notion of the role of social services, different ways of bringing up children, unequal relationships between men and women, a different concept of the family and to a different concept of physical and mental health. The author emphasizes that a better understanding of culture shock and an effort to identify and analyze these sensitive zones of intercultural encounter can have a definite impact on the practice and training of social workers.

SUMMARY “The globally aware and knowledgeable social work manager will actively engage in extending relevant services to new populations, creatively attract and organize a multicultural staff, assist staff in taking on practice situations that involve other countries, make use of knowledge and practice innovations from abroad, and participate in shaping agency and community policy relating to the internationalization of social realities” (Healy, in Estes, 1992, p. 84).

SUMMARY The Multicultural Family Centre was created to demonstrate an alternative approach for delivering social services to people from different cultures: the bridging model. This new model links mainstream agencies and vulnerable cultural communities, educates both sides about the culture or sub-culture of the other, and generates ideas, projects and resources that enable the mainstream organizations to provide culturally sensitive services to the ethnic communities they serve. This paper will present the process of implementation and describe the achievements of the Multicultural Family Centre after one year of operation. A comparison between the concepts of the bridging model and what has been accomplished will be the basis for evaluating the development in practice of the bridging model and for determining what changes of direction, if any, are needed.

ABSTRACT In a grounded-theory study of poetry by mainland Puerto Ricans, a vivid picture of their identity emerges, an identity proudly ethnocultural yet oppressed. This paper presents the method of grounded theory, and the findings of that study, and argues that similar analysis of the literatures of all ethnocultural groups is a valid and powerful means for extending social work knowledge.
