Description

Episode 46: In today's podcast I speak with Dr. Elaine Congress about her creation, the Culturagram. Elaine and I talk about how and why she developed the culturagram, the ten assessment areas of the culturagram, and how social workers can use the culturagram to improve their services. We end the podcast with a discussion about research and resources about the culturagram.

Because Elaine is in New York City and I'm in Philadelphia, I recorded today's podcast with Skype. As a result there are a few sonic glitches, but nothing that detracts from the content of the interview. Elaine has provided a copy of the culturagram which can be downloaded at the socialworkpodcast website. Also on the podcast website is a brief clip of Elaine talking about the issue of acculturation.
