After finding a policy, please respond to the following:
- Identify the policy you have selected.
- What are the strengths and weaknesses of the policy in terms of how well it addresses multiculturalism and diversity?

- On a practice level, and from researching your program, does the program share similar strengths and weaknesses in addressing multiculturalism and diversity?
- How does the program and policy address at least two of the following: social justice principles, systemic or institutional barriers, or inequality and poverty?
