What is the NASW Code of Ethics and How Does it Impact Me?
Presenter:  Ruth Lipschutz

NASW members are required to uphold the NASW Code of Ethics, but most members have had little or no training on the code or how to apply it in practice.  Additionally, social workers frequently deal with multiple and potentially conflicting requirements of ethics codes, agency policies and laws.  This workshop helps social workers integrate the NASW Code as an effective and supportive tool in their daily practice.

This workshop will cover the following areas:

• An overview of the NASW Code.

•  Application of specific sections including confidentiality and conflict of interest.

•  Integrating multiple codes, policies and laws.

•  Resolving ethical conflicts and dilemmas.

• Application of the Code in daily practice.

Offered: In-House & Live Virtually
