Focused on providing readers with the knowledge and skills to
maximize the educational opportunities for children raised in low
socio-economic conditions, Culturally Proficient Approaches to
Conditions of Poverty provides a context for helping teachers and
school leaders understand school equity issues that are related to
social class. The authors frame this timely subject within the lens
of cultural proficiency-a perspective that emphasizes how one works
with people different from one's self in a non-judgmental,
pro-social manner to help ensure effective practices. This
strengths-based approach contrasts with previous deficit models
that have targeted what isn't working and what doesn't exist for
the child, rather than building on children's strengths, regardless
of their socio-economic status.
