Exploring Professional Ethics through Diversity-Informed Reflective Supervision
Van Horn, Jacqui
ZERO TO THREE, v40 n1 p5-10 Sep 2019
The complex concepts of ethics, diversity-informed practice, and reflective supervision intersect. In this article, the Diversity-Informed Tenets for Work With Infants, Children and Families (Irving Harris Foundation, 2018) provide a framework to explore the process of reflective supervision. The author uses a vignette to illustrate the interpersonal and professional dilemmas and internal struggles experienced by both practitioner and supervisor. Work with children and families is complex and emotionally powerful. Issues of ethics, equity, and justice are best explored with care and intentionality within a trusting reflective supervisory relationship.
