Description:

This webinar explores the context and nature of culturally responsive practices in literacy instruction to improve future success and quality-of-life outcomes for underserved students. Culturally responsive practices support the achievement of all students by providing services that acknowledge and appropriately respond to the intersection of the cultural perspectives that students and SLPs bring to interactions. Speakers will discuss best practices for inclusiveness and advocacy when working with underserved students and how to collaborate with classroom educators to provide culturally relevant literacy instruction.

This webinar is part of the SIGnature Series, a collection of webinars developed by volunteers from ASHA’s Special Interest Groups, who share practical, evidence-based suggestions and solutions based on their in-depth knowledge, clinical experiences, and passion for their specialty areas. This webinar was developed by SIG 16: School-Based Issues.

• Define cultural competency and describe your cultural awareness after completing a cultural competence self-awareness inventory
