Future generations are being compromised. Child abuse and neglect produces anti-social behavior that impacts the entire community. The SB 2030 Study documents that without more workers, all this good work can't get done. To be effective, social workers need the resources of time and services. Every child deserves a healthy home life, and we need every child to become a fully functioning member of society.
Social work can make a difference.
Become a social worker and help build the future. Link up and form a united front with other stakeholders, such as the California County Welfare Directors Association, children's advocacy groups, the judicial council, and others to carry the message. Create a traveling photo exhibit of social workers and clients interacting, with short stories or text, to be displayed at public places, libraries, county administration buildings, and offices. Promote the campaign through use of new technology such as web site and internet promotion. The theme of the proposed campaign will be that social work can make a difference, that we can reclaim the lost members of society, if only workers are given the time to spend with their clients.
