You will have the opportunity to work with many different people in your practicum, and they may be very different than you. It is important that you build your skills in your communication with all types of people. Please see Chapter 6: Appreciating Cultural Diversity (Multiculturalism) from "Succeeding at Your Internship: A Handbook Written for and with Student" by Christopher J. Mruk and John C. Moor (bgsu.edu) for an excellent overview of working toward being more inclusive in your work helping others.
