In this assignment, you will pick two of your many identities to research and analyze in terms of how each identity may affect your provision of services.

Tasks:

Identify one ethnic (e.g., Mexican, Asian, etc.) and one cultural (i.e., this could be religion, sexual orientation, etc.) important identities about yourself. For example, African American or white.
