This webinar will explore cutting-edge ethical issues arising out of social workers' growing use of digital technology, online interventions, and social media to deliver services, communicate with clients, search online for information about clients, and store sensitive information in electronic behavioral health records.

Two-day workshop

In this workshop, participants will consider the dynamics and skills of engaging and working with hard-to-reach individuals, families, and groups. The client will be described as facing a "first decision" - whether or not to accept the need for help and to accept the worker.

This workshop will provide a review of the ethical mandates in the NASW Code of Ethics, and a generic algorithm for resolving ethical dilemmas. Beyond that, we will use case studies to illustrate the ethical challenges of the pandemic, the current political ferment, and ever-changing technologies. We will particularly consider the ways that the pandemic has impacted on the use of these new technologies.
