Summaries

Summary Sentence: A workshop to help foster culturally responsive communication.

Full Summary: The ability or inability to pronounce someone’s name can affect the creation of meaningful relationships. This practical workshop will foster culturally responsive communication.

The ability or inability to pronounce someone’s name can affect the creation of meaningful relationships. We have many people of Indian decent on this campus, but many members of our community do not know how to pronounce Indian names. This practical workshop will foster culturally responsive communication.

This session will be led by representatives of Hindi Vihar, a program of the Indian Cultural Foundation of America (ICFA)
