SW3110 , Diversity, Oppression, and Social Justice, required a paper, Personal Work Plan, that had the students look into their own competence in regard to different cultures. This paper asked for a self-assessment to assess our cultural competence. During the assessment I struggled with the fact that I am not culturally competent and it forced me to take extra measure to learn and become competent in other cultures. This paper allowed me to grow as a social worker. I am now able to recognize different cultures and I am able to identify many parts of the culture itself.
