School Social Work Professional Development

For many, the global crisis has triggered not only a personal family crisis but also an opportunity and willingness to address unhealed wounds and engage in family therapy as never before.

School districts throughout the nation are faced with the challenge of how to ensure continuity of preK-12 education during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Offered continuing education courses include Bullying at School; Can School Social Work Practice Meet Its Own Grand Challenges; Ethical Challenges in School Social Work: Cutting-edge Issues, and more.

This webinar discusses the reality of issues and options related to the prevention of school shootings. The discussion will include information on research findings, the identification of causal factors related to school shootings, and best practices concerning school shootings.
