Watching “Crazy, Rich, Asians” Doesn’t Make you Culturally Competent. Understanding East-Asian Culture and What Services are Impactful
Pride, fear of stigma, bringing shame upon the family and a distrust for providers are a few of the underlying reasons East-Asian populations avoid helping professionals. When the problems become unmanageable, families extend a plea of assistance often too late.. Attendees will gain an understanding of the East-Asian cultural norms and be equipped with tools to service clients WHEN they do present. This workshop is appropriate for law enforcement, DAs, advocates, mental health professionals.
