Social Work Month 2025: Empowering Social Workers, Strengthening Communities
March is Social Work Month, a time to honor the invaluable contributions of social workers in transforming lives and advocating for justice, equity, and well-being. The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) celebrates the profession’s dedication to uplifting individuals, families, and communities through advocacy, innovation, and unwavering support.
This year’s theme highlights the resilience and impact of social workers across diverse sectors—healthcare, education, mental health, and beyond. Join us in recognizing their essential role in fostering positive change, breaking barriers, and building a more just society.
