March is National Social Work Month

There are more than 700,000 social workers in the United States. Healthcare, schools, child welfare, advocacy and community organizations, and clinical settings are just a few of the industries where social workers may be found. The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) has announced that the theme for this year's National Social Work Month is "Social Work: Generations Strong!" This theme was chosen to recognize that the field of social work is made up of professionals who span different generations but who all work together for the betterment of society. Don't forget to thank the social workers in your life and take some time this March to recognize the work they put in every day.
