Re: culturally competent practices

I am enclosing a list of references here that may interest you. This is
certainly not exhaustive--it has a leaning toward issues facing latinos.

This spring (May?) a special issue of the journal, Child Maltreatment,
with a focus on Cultural Issues in Child Maltreatment is coming out. You
may want to check it out both for the articles included and those cited.

,
I do a lot of trainings in this area--please feel free to contact me off
list if I can be of any further help.
