“…Due to disproportionate overrepresentation in neighborhoods marked by concentrated poverty and high rates of violent crime (Anderson, 2008;Butler, 2017;Maguire-Jack et al, 2021;Voisin, 2018), Black emerging adults are at elevated risk of CVE and associated adverse mental and physical health outcomes. This integrative review confirmed a positive relationship between CVE and a host of negative mental and physical health outcomes among national and community-based samples of Black emerging adults.…”

Community violence exposure (CVE) and its health impact is a public health crisis. Violent crime has steadily increased over recent years and has disproportionately affected Black communities. Emerging adulthood (18–29 years old) is a vulnerable period of development and Black emerging adults may be at increased risk for negative physical and mental health consequences from CVE. This integrative review was conducted to evaluate available evidence on health outcomes in Black emerging adults exposed to CVE. This review appraised published studies (2012–2022) addressing physical and mental health outcomes of Black emerging adults with CVE. Articles were identified using structured search terms in several databases (CINAHL, PubMed, PsycInfo, and Web of Science), a gray literature search, and citation mining. A total of 177 studies were identified for screening and 19 studies met inclusion criteria and were included in the review. The majority of studies found a significant positive association between CVE and adverse mental ( n = 12) and physical ( n = 7) health outcomes. CVE appears to have both mental and physical health consequences for Black emerging adults. Given that violent crime disproportionately increased in Black communities and Black people are more likely to develop chronic health conditions at younger ages, more work is needed to elucidate the relationship between CVE and health outcomes.

“…The knowledge dimension encourages the practitioner to learn about issues and concerns of those experiencing poverty. For example, children experiencing poverty disproportionately experience food insecurity, homelessness, and an increased likelihood of experiencing four or more adverse childhood experiences (ACEs; types of trauma such as abuse, neglect, domestic violence; Maguire‐Jack et al, 2021). Using a posture of cultural humility requires one to learn from the individual and understand that even though a group of people disproportionately experience a specific issue, it does not mean everyone in the group experiences the issue.…”

Culture has a substantial impact on a wide range of behaviors related to behavioral research and services such as rapport building, preferences for specific targets and treatments, communication, and even the quality of health care. The need for professionals in the field of applied behavior analysis (ABA) to incorporate culturally responsive practices is underscored by the current and projected increase in diversity in the United States. Further, the update to the Ethics Code (BACB, 2020) supports addressing diversity in behavior analytic practice. Self‐assessment of one's values, biases, and culture are a critical step in delivering culturally responsive services. The purpose of this paper is three‐fold: a) to introduce a framework for cultural responsiveness in ABA, b) to showcase research and practice recommendations from within and outside the field of ABA in the area of self‐assessment, and c) to inspire research in self‐assessment to support cultural responsiveness in ABA.

“…For instance, using food as a reinforcer may be contraindicated for clients experiencing poverty. In addition, clients experiencing poverty are more likely to experience trauma (Maguire‐Jack et al, 2021) and hence trauma‐informed care (TIC) should be considered (see Rajaraman et al, 2022 for more information on TIC in ABA). Further, acquiring knowledge about the clients' cultural variables can help identify barriers that prevent members of minoritized groups from accessing specific services.…”

The new Ethics Code for Behavior Analysts requires that certificants engage in training related to culturally responsive service delivery (BACB, 2020). There is limited work in the area of culturally responsive evidence-based practice within our field. Therefore, it is incumbent on researchers and practitioners to identify best practices for working with diverse populations. Hence, the purpose of this paper is three-fold: a) to review research within and outside the field of ABA related to culturally responsive assessment and treatment and provide practice recommendations, b) to examine the extent to which current practices in behavior assessment and treatment align with aspects of culturally responsive practices, and c) to inspire research in the areas of behavior assessment and treatment to identify best practices with regard to culturally responsive behavior analytic practices. The content of this paper is grounded in the framework described by Beaulieu and Jimenez-Gomez (2022).
