SUBJECT: Social Work Month.
SUMMARY: Proclaims March 2020 as Social Work Month in the State of California and encourages all Californians to take part in March “Social Workers Generations Strong” events throughout California. Specifically, this resolution makes the following legislative findings:
- March 2020 is recognized nationally as Social Work Month, and this year’s theme is, “Social Workers Generations Strong.”
- The primary mission of the social work profession is to enhance and meet the basic needs of all people, with particular attention to the needs of, and empowerment through social action and social justice for, those who are poor, oppressed, and living in poverty.
- Today, there are over 707,400 professional social workers in the United States, over 70,700 of whom are in California; and, there are approximately 6,500 graduate students in the social work pipeline in 24 accredited California State University, University of California, and private programs throughout the state.
- Professional social workers train in an intensive combination of classroom and community experiences focused on individuals, families, and communities in crisis and in need of help; and, provide services across the age spectrum, from prenatal to end of life services.
- Professional social workers serve in diverse settings, including schools, courtrooms, health clinics, hospitals, senior centers, homeless shelters, nursing homes, the military, disaster relief, prisons, corporations, and in political office.
- For decades, social workers have been in the forefront of social justice, pushing for equal rights for women, African Americans, Latinos, people who are disabled, people who are LGBTQ and various ethnic, cultural and religious groups.
- Social workers stand ready to help our society overcome current pressing issues, including equal rights for all, the need for improved availability of health care and mental health services, immigration reform, voting rights, and the environmental impact of global warming.
