Cultural Humility and Social Foundations in Counseling (3 CE Hours)

This comprehensive 3-hour Continuing Education course is designed for Ohio Counselors, Social Workers, and Marriage and Family Therapists. Its content falls within the "social and cultural foundations" program area that OAC 4757-9-01 lists for counselor continuing education; Ohio does not require a set number of renewal hours in that area, so these hours can be applied toward the general thirty-hour renewal requirement rather than a separate cultural requirement. The curriculum moves beyond the traditional framework of cultural competence to explore the dynamic and lifelong process of cultural humility. Participants will examine the Multicultural and Social Justice Counseling Competencies (MSJCC) to analyze the intersection of privilege, oppression, and power within the therapeutic relationship. The course provides a rigorous review of cultural identity development models and specific counseling considerations for diverse populations, including African American, Asian American, Latinx, Arab American, and Native American clients. Special emphasis is placed on the ethical mandates of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) and the ACA Code of Ethics regarding nondiscrimination, advocacy, and the integration of social justice into clinical practice. Upon successful completion of the post-test, hours are reported directly to CE Broker.
