This abstract bibliography lists selected resources for addressing race and ethnicity issues with adolescents who have chronic illnesses and disabilities. References are dated from 1980 to 1991. First, 18 references provide general information about the issues of cultural competence and cultural diversity for health care professionals, educators, parents, and program planners. The next section lists 18 principles of a culturally derived program taken from "Policy-Planning for Culturally Comprehensive Special Health Services" (Emily Vargas Adams). The major portion of the bibliography consists of references divided into the following categories: education (28), assessment and testing (4), employment (7), health (14), epidemiology (8), parents (5), and psychosocial (10).
