CULTURAL COMPETENCY 

Organizations that develop culturally responsive skills can improve consumer engagement, enhance the therapeutic relationship between consumer and provider, and improve treatment retention and outcomes.

​

The Cultural and Linguistics Competence (Intelligence) Workgroup is a collaboration of Community Mental Health Centers and the Missouri Department of Mental Health. This workgroup is charged with developing a set of congruent behaviors, attitudes and policies that enables our respective organizations to work effectively in multicultural environments.
