The CLAS Trainings provide useful information on how to improve services to those we serve, especially the disparate populations on Guam. This includes the under-served and under-represented communities. This is a highly interactive and fun opportunity with stimulating learning activities.  We discuss issues of confidentiality, language, culture, attitudes, discrimination, shame & stigma and health equity, to name a few topics. We also talk extensively of the racial and ethnic considerations in the delivery of quality services.  
 

This workshop is to complete our series on Assessments, Outcome Data, Treatment Planning, and Documentation.
