Multicultural Education Policies in Canada and the United States uses a dialogical approach to examine responses to increasing cultural and racial diversity in both countries. It compares and contrasts foundational myths and highlights the sociopolitical contexts that affect the conditions of citizenship, access to education, and inclusion of diverse cultural knowledge and languages in educational systems.
This will interest readers in the areas of multiculturalism, education, public policy, and ethnic studies, and will be valuable to policy developers and activists in the fields of equity and diversity.

November 2006 - theLaSource.com forum de la diversité
Barriers in the Workplace by: Becky McEachern, www.thelasource.com/
article.php?id=-2&issue=Nov_26_2006
[article quoted from November 26, 2006 issue of TheLaSource.com]
Folks tend to throw around the word ‘diversity’ with a sort of nonchalance these days. It means variety, assortment, multiplicity, range, miscellany, mixture, etc. What the dictionary doesn't warn us of, though, is that sometimes a tricky situation 0ccurs where the surface appearance is not representative of what is underneath. Superficial diversity is very dangerous. It lures us into feeling like we are being inclusive and collaborative even in cases where it might not be true.
.... go to original article for full text
There are several resources available to help people figure out how to keep up with diversity in the workplace. One of these is the Diversity Training Workshop. ....
Adrienne Chan [emphasis added] is a Diversity Trainer from a group called GetDiversity.Com Consulting Associates. With a doctorate in education, a B.A. in psychology, and a masters in Social Work, she has done some significant people-studying. Among other things, she does workplace assessments and leads diversity training workshops. She says that approximately half of the workshops they give are requested by organizations that are aware that a problem may already exist. The other portion are asking for some guidance in order to avoid potential negative situations. So it seems that these resources act as both prevention and cure. A terribly clichéd proverb claims that 'an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure', so, in this light, taking measures sooner than later would make the most sense.
The effectiveness of the workshops, however, depends almost entirely on the level of commitment within the organization. ....
Dr. Chan also explains that one of the biggest issues for metropolitan areas is ‘systematic racism’. This is where policies that aren’t meant to be racist or discriminatory end up harming individuals inadvertently. Each individual must be acknowledged for their skills in fulfilling the job description. In order for a workplace to be able to say it has incorporated different types of people, it needs to foster an environment that helps them to succeed as individuals, and not simply be present as a token representation of whatever community they may be deemed a part of.
Also from GetDiversity.Com, Eric Wong [emphasis added] provides further insight into the reach for diversity by reminding us that we have to be ready to stretch the limits of our comfort zones to be able to genuinely succeed. He says that in overcoming barriers to establishing an equal opportunity work environment, “our worst enemy is our self”. It is easiest to communicate and identify with someone who seems like they are ‘like us’, and so unless we identify what we are uncomfortable with and challenge our selves to overcome it, we will continue making choices in avoidance of what is unfamiliar.
Since he worked for years in the school system, he brings to light the fact that when a teacher has a group of students with a wide variety of religious and cultural persuasions, it is necessary to take more religious holidays and different customs into consideration when planning the activities for the school year. It is also important to educate yourself in order to be able to create an environment where students feel accepted and acknowledged.
Furthering diversity takes effort, and it may even be an inconvenience to our established routines, but not only is it worth the extra effort, it’s necessary if we want to grow and flourish as a mosaic city......

September 2006 - Kith and Kin Placement: Best Practices
Presented at: XVIth ISPCAN International Congress on Child Abuse and Neglect (3-6 September 2006, York) York University, United Kingdom. www.ispcan.org
Presented by: Adrienne S. Chan and Gloria K.Wolfson, University College of the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford, BC, CanadaThe British Columbia (Canada) Ministry of Child and Family Development implemented a new strategy of placing children needing care with extended family or community people as alternatives to foster care. Factors critical in kith and kin placements include housing; medical and dental care; availability of family counselling; respite care; and case management. The objectives of this research were to determine the outcomes of out of care placement options. Kith and kin care respects Aboriginal ways of being and preserves the extended family. However, with the effects of residential schools on successive generations, kith and kin care becomes problematic. Literature on extended family care agreements is available but scarce. Often the burden of extended family care falls on grandparents (most often women) who may have health and financial issues. Some studies have suggested that family reunification is easier to accommodate when the child has been placed with a friend or relative than in foster care.
A survey of a stratified random sample of child protection workers in the province was undertaken. Variables included a) educational background, b) number of years of child protection practice, c) experience with out of care agreements, d) beliefs about strengths and challenges, and e) attitudes towards out of care agreements.

July 2006 - International Conference Paper Presentations
Managing Change: A case study of competencies and standards
The Sixth International Conference on Knowledge, Culture and Change in Organisations, Monash University Centre in Prato, Italy - July 2006
This session discusses the process of developing competencies and standards for social workers in a Canadian province. In Canada, registration is a provincial responsibility and all provinces, except one, register only graduates of 4 year programs. However, one province registers, as social workers, graduates of both 2 year (diploma)and 4 year (university) programs.
A process exists to approve university programs (Canadian Association of Schools of Social Work). However, there is no comparable process for the 2 year programs. This project focused on the development of competencies and standards to be met by the 2 year programs.
Presented by Dr. Adrienne Chan and Dr. Gloria Wolfson at Prato, Italy June 2006 at
The Sixth International Conference on Knowledge, Culture and Change in Organisations, in Prato, Italy (in Tuscany), Tuesday 11th to Friday 14th July 2006.The conference paper description quoted from http://m06.cgpublisher.com/proposals/156/index_html 6th International Conference..... Monash University Centre, Prato, Tuscany, Italy is as follows:
" [continuation from above] ... to be met by the 2 year programs."
" A consultative process, work with an advisory committee, and discussions with stakeholder groups evoked a good deal of discussion, and, in some cases, resistance. The session will discuss resistance to change; and the issue of competencies, standards and accreditation for applied programs requiring registration."
" Educational programs have a good deal of control and latitude in their program development and delivery. Faced with meeting specific competencies, professional schools sometimes have difficulty in relinquishing control to registration and licensure bodies. Professional accrediting bodies require specific requirements be met by educational programs. Herein lies the contention between forces: professionalization, academic autonomy, and licensing standards."
" The session will outline the process used to develop a competency and standards document; the challenges and issues raised; and the final outcomes of the process. The lessons from this process include: strategically dealing with resistance, working with supportive stakeholder groups, and managing the tension between professional and educational groups."
"This session will be of interest to administrators, faculty and professional sector groups that have worked with competencies and standards"

Headlines & News Updates - Clippings
The scanned article above was originally published in the Vancouver PROVINCE NEWSPAPER, Feb. 04, 2004. It reports on the Vancouver School Board using Adrienne Chan Consulting Services as part of a policy and program review of anti-racism programs and services in the school district. The PROVINCE cites the death of a high school student in the fall of 2003 and tensions between different visible minority, ethnic groups in the schools.
Quotes from "Schools not doing enough to combat racism: Report"
Province newspaper article by John Bermingham, Staff Reporter email jbermingham@png.canwest.com [2004-feb-04]The preliminary report on the Vancouver School Board's anti-racism policy says that the districts four-year-old anti-racism plan has run out of steam.
School trustee Jane Bouey, who chairs the committee that's reviewing the policy, said the NPA board didn't see racism as a priority issue.
"Nothing every [sic] really happened with that plan. It was put on the back-burner," said Bouey. "To discover that was ... unsettling."
A review of the existing plan by University of B.C. consultant [Dr.] Adrienne Chan said schools have good intentions on combatting racism, but often don't have the funding.
More dialogue for youth is needed, and safe spaces where students can talk about racism are needed, she said.
The review says that anti-racism policies should be a district wide priority, with improved curriculum for classrooms and professional development for teachers.
