“The Cultural and Linguistic Competence Implementation Guide was developed by the TA Partnership through its Cultural Competence Action Team (CCAT). The goal of the Implementation Guide is to translate the theoretical construct, values, and principles established in Towards a Culturally Competent System of Care (1989); provide and update existing standards for CLC; and translate the limited research available in this area into practical, feasible, and concrete strategies that can assist communities to make cultural and linguistic competence a reality. The major premise of the Cultural and Linguistic Competence Implementation Guide is that CLC must be infused throughout every aspect of the system of care. This requires transformation at the policy, administrative, practice, and consumer levels of service.”
