This journal self-study focuses on rationale and techniques for enhancing clinicians’ cultural competence when working in Native American and tribal communities. The articles, originally published in a 2016 issue of Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups (SIG 14, Cultural and Linguistic Diversity), address the lasting impact of historical trauma on health and education; the importance of differentiated instruction; the perspective of a student with hearing loss who experiences traditional cultural education; and speech-language intervention programs and services in Native communities.

Learning Outcomes
You will be able to:

  • describe the relationship between historical trauma and persistent health disparities and low academic achievement in American Indian/Alaskan Native populations
  • design a differentiated instruction lesson plan based on examples of the Honoring Tribal Legacies method for Grade 4 and secondary school levels
  • discuss the Culturally Responsive Early Literacy Instruction (CRELI) project’s conceptual framework for culturally responsive teaching
  • identify at least three key steps to establishing a culturally responsive and community-planned speech-language services program within a tribal community
