✦ Synopsis

Counselors and early interventionists increasingly serve Spanish‐speaking families. Yet, often, cultural accommodations merely imply use of interpreters or bilingual providers. Cultural competence requires self‐awareness and understanding the client's community and specific risk and resiliency factors. Implications for serving clients of Latino origins are discussed and illustrated with a case study.

Cada vez hay más consejeros y agentes de intervención temprana proporcionando servicios a familias de habla hispana. Sin emargo, las acomodaciones culturales se limitan con frecuencia al uso de intérpretes o proveedores bilingües. La competencia cultural requiere conocimiento de uno mismo y una comprensión de la comunidad del cliente, así como de los los factores de riesgo y resistencia específicos. Se discuten las implicaciones para servir a los clientes de origen Latino, y se ilustran con un estudio de caso.
