ABSTRACT
In this issue of Child and Youth Services we have gathered a diverse array of scholars and practitioners to explore the parameters, definitions, and praxis of multiculturalism as it impacts and is shaped by the field of Child and Youth Care (CYC). In the preceding pages we have engaged multiculturalism as a generative term rather than seeking to foreclose or reduce it to any single definition. Indeed, one might well wonder, here at the end, whether we can say anything definitive about the term multiculturalism that might assist us in forming a praxis of CYC that would promote better relations between diverse cultures in our programs and interactions with young people and families.
