Culture is an enduring element, a tradition that is embedded in every human thought, emotion, and behavior. Culture is an element that is often complex to assess, as it is ever-changing as societal norms change. However, culture is also the critical factor that upholds normed belief patterns that maintain physical and psychological health as well as contributing to the tenacity of mental health and substance use disorders. This training was developed for behavioral health professionals and administrators wishing to learn how to integrate cultural elements into effective behavioral health services for Hmong clients.
Demonstrate the consideration and incorporation of cultural values when treating Hmong with behavioral health disorders
