This is a hybrid (online and virtual) conference.

HYBRID CONFERENCE

In person: Wilderness Hotel & Resort, Wisconsin Dells, WI

The theme is “Social Work, Human Rights and Resiliency.”

Racial justice should be at the heart of social work practice. Racism is America's defining social problem. By not acknowledging and addressing this, social workers are ignoring their ethical obligation.

Register for "Race, Racism and the Social Work Profession"

Is it possible to have the challenging social justice dialogues we need to have today with both civility and honest boldness?

We say yes; it is not only possible but necessary for us to both bridge the differences that divide us and form the kinds of cooperative relationships necessary to deal with the social justice challenges that now confront us all.

This session will explore important principles of leadership, particularly as it relates to the social work profession. It will illustrate the intrinsic relationship between the core values of social work and the need for effective leadership.
