CSL 3650 - Treating Diverse Populations1.0 Credits
This class will provide an in depth overview of the diverse populations in the addiction treatment realm. Addiction specialists may work with individuals from the general public or they may specialize in specific populations, such as gender specific, persons involved in the criminal justice system, families, LGBTQIA, veterans and the opioid addiction epidemic. An understanding of race, ethnicity, and culture (including one’s own) is necessary to appreciate the diversity of human dynamics and to treat all clients effectively. This class will present definitions of microaggressions, systemic racial injustice, principles of social justice and multicultural and social justice treatment. This class also seeks to enhance the ability of students to offer treatment services in a manner that respects gender, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, cultural, familial, systemic and socioeconomic diversity.
