Conference aims at acceptance of cultural differences - Cambio de Colores: Latinos in Missouri

Advocates of immigration reform attending the “Cambio de Colores: Latinos in Missouri” conference yesterday met to discuss a wide range of issues, from state lobbying efforts to prevent discriminatory legislation to cultural guidebooks and Web material to help social workers reach out to Missouri’s newest residents.

“We need to train more people … to make them aware of cultural differences, not to make them change, just to make them aware,” said Karina Galve, a Columbia Public Schools teacher who attended a break-out session on change and integration.”*
