Due to the wide range of settings, social workers can engage with various populations, ethnicity, cultures, and traditions. I understand I will interact with clients that have diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences. Therefore, being culturally competent and conscious of my own differences is required for comprehension, providing the appropriate services and resources to clients. I respect and value the dignity and worth of all human beings. In addition, in abiding by the Code of Ethics, I will address and advocate for any type of discrimination a client experiences.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-254 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/swpro.org\/kmeneses\/files\/2020\/07\/diversity-620x723-1-257x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"257\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swpro.org\/kmeneses\/files\/2020\/07\/diversity-620x723-1-257x300.png 257w, https:\/\/swpro.org\/kmeneses\/files\/2020\/07\/diversity-620x723-1.png 620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 257px) 100vw, 257px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><b>2A &#8211; Develop and implement strategies that strive to eradicate discrimination in any form<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong>Field Evidence:<\/strong> For practicum, I developed a research paper describing (Cognitive level: knowledge) how people of color are experiencing discrimination throughout the states, during the pandemic of COVID-19.
