6.04 of the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics asserts a) Social workers should engage in social and political action that seeks to ensure that all people have equal access to the resources, employment, services, and opportunities they require to meet their basic human needs and to develop fully. Social workers should be aware of the impact of the political arena on practice and should advocate for changes in policy and legislation to improve social conditions in order to meet basic human needs and promote social justice.
In light of this statement address the following questions:
Do you think social work is directly linked to politics? Explain
How can social workers use politics to impact change in needed areas? Be specific in your response.
Do you think organizations such as the National Association of Social Workers should endorse candidates who are running for an elected office? For example, in the last presidential election NASW endorsed Biden/Harris for the presidency/vice presidency campaign. Try to see both sides of the question when responding (should they endorse a candidate v. should they remain neutral)
