We support VOTING IS SOCIAL WORK!

Hello all!  Today we want to post on behalf of Voting is Social Work  as we support their vission that………..

Social justice is a core principle of social work practice and calls for ensuring meaningful participation in decision making for all people. Voting is Social Work is a nonprofit nonpartisan organization that provides social work students and practitioners with the knowledge and tools to raise awareness about voting and to increase voting registration and participation. We do this work through our National Social Work Voter Mobilization Campaign which strives to integrate nonpartisan voter registration and engagement into social work education and practice. 

Check out the flyers below and be sure to check in at their page for more information!
