However, despite an ever growing trend toward a more multi-ethnic society, Americans still do not equally share in the hope for recovery from mental illness despite the availability of effective and well-documented treatments. HFO's newest online course entitled Cultural Competency in Pediatric Psychology: Issues & Clinical Applications, defines cultural competency within pediatric/child psychology and illustrates how to achieve cultural sensitivity in the delivery of mental health care to children and their families. Each of HFO's online CE/CEU courses are fast, convenient and especially cost-effective as health professionals have free ongoing access to course updates beyond completion of the CE activity.
