“The work culture used because it implies the integrated pattern of human behavior that includes thoughts, communications, actions, customs, beliefs, values, and institutions of a racial ethnic, religious, or social group.”(NASW,200b,p.61) The social work practice has to be very knowledgeable in my opinion in cultural competence in better understanding the specific culture, language, social and economic nuances of those particular groups of society.
