Are there any succesful behavior modification programs geared to african americans and,if so, at how many or what levels? Personally(as an african american) i have utilized be/mod theories successfully in several areas (higher education,social services,bus/industry/non profit community organizaions,etc) starting in 1978. I have been retired since 1997,have attempted to volunteer my skills/efforts time and time again but found no takers. Yet, i continue to see highly educated professionals awkwardly stumbling about as they attempt to apply short sighted and naive be/mod applications to various programs while expending(wasting) hundreds of thousands of dollars. Can someone explain this situation to me???
