About the book

"This volume guides mental health practitioners in conducting culturally competent, effective work with economically disadvantaged youngsters from African American, Asian American, Latino, and Native American backgrounds.". "Clinicians gain insight into the impact on young people of poverty and discrimination, and the importance of understanding family belief systems and cultural expectations about children's behavior. Concrete suggestions are offered on how to elicit relevant history information and whom to select as the informants; how to use available diagnostic criteria; and how to intervene, with whom, and using which treatment strategies."--BOOK JACKET.
