Guidelines for social workers visiting and working inside corrections facilities.
Description
Social work / Viewpoints
Abstract
The NASW Code of
Ethics states, “The primary
mission of the social work
profession is to enhance
human well-being and
help meet the basic human
needs of all people, with
particular attention to the
needs and empowerment
of people who are
vulnerable, oppressed,
and living in poverty.”
This certainly sounds
applicable to social workers
in correctional settings.
For whatever reasons,
relatively few social
workers have ever visited,
volunteered, or worked
in these facilities. Perhaps
it’s time to reconsider.
