In an increasingly diverse global context in which school psychologists strive to ensure appropriate educational services for all, addressing social injustice is critical. Cultural humility can serve as a link between cultural diversity and social justice, providing a deep awareness that allows school psychologists to understand themselves and their interactions with diverse students and families. Additionally, cultural humility provides a lens for framing advocacy necessary to address social justice concerns. This article reviews the literature on cultural humility and suggests promising practices for training school psychologists as culturally humble practitioners.
