How Cultural Inclusion Can Help
At the Osiris Group, we have devised three tenants that we would like for all of our clinical professionals to have:
- Culturally competent
- Professionally trained
- Professionally competent
Culturally Competent
Being culturally competent when working with black people is more critical than being professionally educated. Culture determines our belief systems, our values, and the choices that we make in our everyday environments. We want all practitioners to be more knowledgeable about the urban psyche and particularly the conditioning process that the African American urban psyche has undergone.
As Practitioners
If, as practitioners in the helping fields, we are in tune with the cultural conditioning processes that the urban black psyche has undergone, we will not only understand why the black psyche presents as they do, but more importantly, we will understand how to begin to reverse the self-destructive personality.
Culturally Disconnected
When clinicians, parents, or helping professionals are culturally disconnected from understanding how a black person is making sense of their world or the values that mental support specific choice selections, assisting professionals start to look for reasons to blame their failed interventions on the individual.
