Dr. Wolf recognizes that  subcultures are not inclusive of only culturally-diverse communities. Cultures are also represented by unique, self-identified communities such as:
- Disability Community, at large
- Deaf Community
- Deaf-Blind Communities
- Military and veteran communities
- Wounded Warrior Community
- The Arts Community
- Gay-Lesbian-Bisexual-Transgender-Queer and Questioning (GLBTQ) Community
- The Adolescent/Youth Culture
Each of these groups embraces their own cultural lens and community-specific issues which must be honored and addressed when preparing and delivering training and education or evaluating development programs.
