A CHANGING COMMUNITY
hands sand

 

Sometimes, it can be difficult to recognize just how diverse your community is becoming. How can you create an agency or organization that is both appealing and accommodating to people of different cultures? At COMPASS, we’re committed to helping you develop an environment that embraces multiculturalism.

  • Do you interact with individuals from other countries or cultures through your agency or organization?

  • Are you frustrated because communication is sometimes difficult?

  • Is understanding and follow-through incomplete, or sometimes non-existent?

  • Do you hesitate at times because you are unsure if you will offend others?

  • "We need diversity of thought in the world to face the new challenges."
    ~ Tim Berners Lee

    If any of the above questions concern you or your group, then COMPASS can assist you. We’ll help you empower your agency or organization by carefully assessing your needs, and then providing targeted Cultural Competence training.

    Cultural Competence consists of the following four elements: awareness, knowledge, skills, and commitment. Through our trainings, we help people increase their awareness of cultural differences, expand their knowledge about these differences, learn skills to achieve successful interactions with people of different cultures, and make personal commitments to continue learning about diversity in their communities.

    Additionally, COMPASS provides many other services that can help your agency or organization work toward multiculturalism. We also offer:

  • Citizenship and Immigration Assistance
  • Interpretation and Translation
  • Cultural Presentation

  • Contact us today to learn more about the ways we can help your group succeed in a diverse community.
