Social Workers have had an impact on social security from its inception. By privatizing even a small percentage of social security, it threatens the benefits of future generations, possibly increasing the disparity between rich and poor. Al Gore has fought for working families for more than twenty years. Social Workers agree with Gore and and share the belief that families and communities should instill values that create strong, healthy children for a better society. Gore's policies help parents balance professional and personal life, creating more opportunities for parents to spend time with their children, thereby putting family first.
Social workers know first-hand how important parental involvement is in children's lives.
Good parenting skills, time and less financial stress all play a part in building strong families. By focusing on families and issues important to them, Al Gore hopes to ensure that families can successfully balance their lives, eventually leading to a better country.
