The Context and Purpose of Multicultural Training Exploration and examination of

multicultural issues pertaining to the practice of psychotherapy are intended to enhance multicultural competence (awareness, knowledge and skills) among clinicians in order to increase cultural competence in the delivery of services to a diverse student population.

Multicultural topics and issues are chosen in order to address issues of racism, sexism, heterosexism, ageism and ablism.
