SMILE: Survey of Multicultural Interactions and Linguistic Engagement

The SMILE is a research-based, cultural competence assessment tool (developed by Dr. Helen Tinsley) to enable participants to gauge their individual level of cultural competence​ & support leadership teams in conducting a multicultural scan.​ Participants will be guided into creating Professional Learning Communities (PLC's) to further cultural conversations, via reading and discussion groups focusing on multicultural and diverse literature to build greater facility in cultural competence.
