In order to connect with an African American client in career counseling, you as a counselor have to understand where we are coming from as a minority That is found in the past, present and the future (Carroll, 1998). ]]> 2017-09-03 00:11:17 UTC https://padlet.com/wxf16a/hsbz5afgcs4i/wish/184378199 Career Counseling Objectives for African Americans wxf16a https://padlet.com/wxf16a/hsbz5afgcs4i/wish/184378356 Counselors must be capable of acknowledging environmental handicaps in order to eliminate them.
Recognize the client's stage of identity through establishing a level of trust
Learn the client's degree of acculturation to the majority of the culture and degree of retention of the minority of the culture.
Advocate for clients by ensuring that there is equal access to career services.
Involve client's community in the process of career counseling (Carroll, 1998). ]]> 2017-09-03 00:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/wxf16a/hsbz5afgcs4i/wish/184378356 Reaching out to Young African Americans wxf16a https://padlet.com/wxf16a/hsbz5afgcs4i/wish/184378491 Speaking to young African American children regarding career development is less common and needs to be encouraged more.

Young African Americans need to be exposed to more math and science oriented occupations (Carroll, 1998)

Everyday African Americans are challenged oppression, racism and discrimination. These type of things is what holds a community down. It is these kind of things that limits their opportunities for success. The only way that changes can be made is if some of these things are eliminated from their environment. Replacing racism with equality. Replace Oppression with accessible resources and knowledge. Replacing discrimination with acceptance]]> 2017-09-03 00:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/wxf16a/hsbz5afgcs4i/wish/184379705
