First published in 1993. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
The purpose of this book is to expose students of the helping
professions, counselors, teachers, college professors, mental
health workers, and social workers to the unique characteristics of
representative American subgroups and to effectively assist these
same professionals as they work with clients and/or students from
these populations. These are grouped by race, gender, sexuality,
age, physical limitations and lifestyle etc. The author of each
chapter is both a trained helping professional and a member of the
group in question. This unique combination of qualifications lends
both an academic and a personal perspective to the understanding of
the populations represented.
