National Professional Social Work Month

Social workers are trained to look at situations in a holistic way.  They help people increase their ability to solve problems, to cope with stressors and to get needed resources.  Social workers bring individuals together with other poeple and their communities to find solutions for problems that continue to plague our society, inclduing hunger, lack of affordable housing, and equal rights for all. 

Social workers make organizations responible to people through sound social policy.  To show appreciation to our Social Worker, Alice Hicks, staff celebrated with a "Denim & Pearls" day, "Bright in Khaki's" day, "Business/Casual" day, "Glam in Green" day, "Pretty in Pastels" day, and went out with a bang on March 31st with a "Kickback Luau Party".
