Graduate · 3 credits

In this course, students will evaluate the diversity of culture and the historical evolution of the mental health system of California to be able to integrate cultural awareness to apply counseling concepts. Students will utilize prior knowledge of assessments and interventions to develop assessment and reporting procedures, justify the use of concepts from the Recovery Orientated System of Care Model (ROSC) to vulnerable populations, and explore aspects of human sexuality specific to California. Non-California residents can benefit from this class as well due to the depth in which the ROSC model, human sexuality and additional assessments are covered.
