Social work is a practice-based profession that promotes social change, development, cohesion, and the empowerment of people and communities.
Social work practice involves the understanding of human development, behavior, and the social, economic, and cultural institutions and interactions.
A social worker helps people cope with the challenges they are facing in their lives. Some, called clinical social workers, are therapists who diagnose and then treat individuals who have mental, behavioral, and emotional disorders.
Specialty categories include:
- children, families and schools
- mental health and substance abuse
- health care
This PPAP 1002 series seminar is required for freshman Pre-Health students to open a pre-health file.
