NASW-VT Launches
"Faces of Social Work in Vermont"

 

In our efforts to raise the visibility of social work in Vermont, NASW-VT is launching an effort to “put a face on” professional social work in Vermont.

Our broad training and even broader areas of practice combine to make public education about the importance and value of our work difficult to convey to the public and to policymakers. We don’t fit into a sound bite.

Faces of Social Work in Vermont aims to acquaint both groups with the rich variety of among social workers—who we are, what we do, and why it is important. Our goal is to have at least one social worker for every legislative district in our gallery. The Faces photos and profiles will be posted initially on redesigned NASW-VT website, www.naswvt.org, which will be unveiled this fall.

All NASW-VT members are invited to submit a digital photo (preferably one that shows you doing something you love to do, such as riding a horse or raking leaves with your child) and complete a brief and fun profile. Click here to complete the profile. Attach it and your photo to an email and send to the Chapter at naswvt@naswvt.org. We will update the Faces gallery twice monthly—but don’t wait. Be among the first to put a face on social work in Vermont!
