Studies focused on a continuum of service delivery forms that target Asian Americans are examined: (a) ethnic agencies serving Asian and other ethnic groups, (b) pan-Asian ethnic agencies, and (c) ethnic agencies targeting specific Asian groups. Culturally responsive strategies being used to develop these Asian-specific service programmes are identified, as well as assumptions/themes that undergird organisational identity, frame organisational culture, and guide practice.
