Tool 6.1: Checklist—culturally competent approach to valued status
You can use this checklist to consider how your service can develop culturally competent service practices regarding Standard 6: Valued status. These are continuous improvement suggestions rather than required parts of the Standard.
| Culturally competent service provision: Valued status 10 |
| Things to consider: |
|
| Do we have a core principle/statement/value that acknowledges and supports a positive social role for people with disability from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds? |
|
| Do we demonstrate in the way we provide services and train staff that we value and respect the cultural, religious and linguistic background of each participant/supported employee? |
|
| Do we liaise and network with ethnic communities, agencies, groups, individuals and forums to promote awareness of the positive value of people with disability from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds? |
|
| Do we target ethnic communities in the delivery, promotion and development of community education, sessions and programs? |
