Register now for "Ethics Forum: Why Thank You - Ethical Dilemmas in Accepting Gifts"

Wednesday, September 9, 2026 from 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM Eastern Time
Presented by Lynn Currier, LICSW, Executive Director — NASW NH & VT Chapters

This program has been approved for 1.0 Continuing Education hour in Ethics. NASW VT Authorization Number 1244.

The NASW Code of Ethics leaves it to the best judgment of the social worker to determine whether to accept a gift from a client.  This can leave social workers uncertain about where their line is.  What goes into that determination? Is just setting a hard and fast "no gifts" policy the best course of action? After a brief presentation, participants will go into breakout rooms with ethical dilemma case scenarios to work through the ethical decision making process.
