What’s New In Social Work Ethics?
2021 NASW Code of Ethics Amendments
Presented by:
Ginny Vayda, LCSW, BCD
April 9, 2022
Course Description:
Faced with new and unique challenges for social work professionals brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and the racial/social justice crises in our country, NASW has revised the NASW Code of Ethics to address the real time needs of the social work profession. This presentation will review those amendments to the document approved on 11.06.2020 and 02.19.2021 and how they inform social work practice. Self-care and cultural competence, the two areas of focus in the document revisions, will be further considered.
Course Objectives:
  • Understand how the ethical principles and standards found in the Social Work Code of Ethics document respond to social change and needs of the profession
  • Review recent revisions to the NASW Code of Ethics and consider how they inform ethical practice
  • Explore emerging and timely issues of self-care and cultural competence/humility as defined in the new revisions and how they impact personal and professional practice
