Multi-Cultural West Virginia Virtual Training
Training Title: Multi-Cultural West Virginia
Date and Time: November 30, 2021, from 6:00 to 8:00pm
Training Description: Some people tend to assume West Virginia is lacking in cultural diversity, partly because in most parts of the state we may not see large numbers of racial and ethnic populations outside of White Anglo-Saxon Protestant. Whether or not we look the same culture is reflected in how we sound, act, and interpret information differently from place to place. Culture is a community’s shared set of norms, practices, beliefs, values, traditions, customs, history, and means of expression that affects how we analyze, judge, and interpret information, behavior, and perceptions about behavior.
Trainer and Credentials: Robin Atkinson, MSW, LGSW
CEUs Available: None
Costs for Non-KVC Staff and Foster Parents: None ($0)
If paying, please pay in cash or a check made out to KVC West Virginia.
