Which document addresses multicultural and social justice principles in group work?

• A. ACA Code of Ethics
• B. ASGW Multicultural and Social Justice Principles
• C. ASGW Best Practice Guidelines
• D. ACA Best Practice Guidelines for Group Workers

Answer: (B)

This item looks for a document that specifically centers multicultural and social justice concerns within group work. The ASGW Multicultural and Social Justice Principles is the one created to guide group practitioners in addressing diversity, power dynamics, oppression, and equity throughout planning, facilitation, and evaluation. It emphasizes cultural humility, inclusive participation, and advocacy as essential parts of ethical group practice. While the ACA Code of Ethics covers counselors’ broader professional responsibilities and the other guidelines provide general group-work practices, they do not focus so explicitly on multicultural and social justice principles within the group context.
