The implications of the proposed evidence-…

Developing a conceptualization of the supervision relationship that can successfully encourage cultural relevancy and the pursuit of social justice is a challenge facing social workers today. We propose that a social constructionist perspective invites social work supervisors influenced by Euro-Western discourse to (1) seek understanding about differences rather than strive to achieve some preconceived notion of cultural competence, and (2) seek …
