Explain the meaning of the following statement: “Social class is one of the least visible dimensions in American society.”

What will be an ideal response?


Though providers work with clients of different social classes, they are generally not trained to address issues of social class with them or to think of their clients’ issues as related to the social class dimensions. The myth of America as a classless society contributes to that invisibility. Also, clinicians are not generally trained to assess social class socialization of their clients.
