The purpose of this study is to verify whether the researcher-constructed group art therapy programs, to enhance the self-expression and self-esteem of children from multi-cultural family backgrounds, operated effectively. The therapy programs were designed after the researchers probed various preceding research works, and then the programs were applied to seven children from multi-cultural family backgrounds. Group therapies were put into practice in two different groups, experimental and control ones. To testify the effects of the program, pre-tests and post-tests of self-expression and self-esteem, KHTP, and KSD were completed, and then the test scores were compared before and after the treatments. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, the group art therapy programs used in this study were effective in enhancing the self-expression and self-esteem of children w ith diverse cultural family backgrounds. The comparison of pre-test and post-test scores showed that there were meaningful improvement in self-expression, and comparative analysis by KHTP verified that there were remarkable changes. Second, the group art therapy programs used in this study were effective in improving the self-esteem of the children who participated in this experiment. The comparison of pre-test and post-test scores showed that there were meaningful improvement in self-esteem, and comparative analysis by KSD also showed that there were remarkable changes. Therefore, the researchers concluded that the group art therapy programs, which were constructed by the researchers of this study, are effective in advancing the self-expression and self-esteem of children from diverse family backgrounds.
