Cultural diversity is an essential element that permeates each component of program evaluation/competency. Cultural diversity does not stand alone, but must be reflected in the goals and mission, staff hiring, staff training, program geographic location, client assessment tools, assessment process, treatment plans and intervention strategies, indices of success, after care, identification of outcome measures, evaluation design and data collection, and collaborative partners. Diversity is not what you do, but how you do it. Careful consideration to at least these issues increases the probability of a competent program.
