About

The guiding philosophy of social work includes values that create a framework for social work education, research and service. These include: progressive ideals of equality, social and economic justice, cultural diversity and freedom; social work's unique focus on person-in-environment as the central concept which shapes our curriculum and practice; excellence in the development of social work knowledge and its dissemination to students, communities and policy-makers; and responsibility for promoting social change and multiculturalism in the community, and empowerment of the social work profession.
