Each panelist will discuss their identity and how it has shaped their experience in the profession as well as how they navigated these challenges. Attendees will be able to gain insight of experiences from the community as well as learn ways we can begin to make real change so the same principles we use for clients can be given to social workers. Join us to participate in a panel about how the social work profession can be better, do better, and move forward together in unity and advocacy.Register for From the Queer Lens Previous Article Racial Justice Forum Next Article Social Worker Self Care Print 934 Tags: virtual webinar chapter new york state Related articles DisAbilities Council: Introduction to TEAM-CBT Therapy HOPP: Legal Aspects of Artificial Intelligence and Privacy Concerns in Private Practice Creating Freedom and Flexibility as a Social Worker Social Impact Horizon: Navigating Grand Challenges in Social Work Congressional Briefing on HR 3073
