dc.description.abstract | Anti-racism is a helpful tool that may be used to improve services for ethnoracial communities. It allows social workers to assess and intervene in their clients’ lives more effectively. This involves looking at the way racism affects them in areas like: employment, housing, and education. Social workers can also avoid generalizing about their clients’ cultures. This includes understanding that their life experiences are complex. | en_US |
