NCAPPS Video Shorts: Culture and Person-Centered Practices

January 14, 2022

Acknowledging and understanding a person's racial and cultural identities is essential for providing person-centered supports. However, there are few resources that directly address the intersection of culture, language, and identity with person-centered thinking, planning, and practice. NCAPPS wants to further this conversation-a conversation that is crucial for systems to build cultural humility and cultural competence into person-centered thinking, planning, and practices.

In a series of short videos, community members from the National Center on Advancing Person-Centered Practices and Systems (NCAPPS) share their thoughts on how their racial and cultural identities shape their expectations and views of support systems.

NCAPPS has released the first five videos in the Culture and Person-Practices video series and will be releasing more videos during the next few weeks. Visit the NCAPPS Shorts webpage to view the videos.
