In March, we celebrate the great profession of social work. Social workers are essential to the
community well-being. Social workers have a strong desire to help people and to make our
communities, our nation, and our world a better place to live. Social workers don’t try to tell people how to do this, instead, they empower people. They give people skills, knowledge, resources, and encourage to overcome life’s challenges. National Professional Social Work Month is an opportunity for social works across the country to turn the spotlight on the profession and highlight the important contributions they make to society. Our nation’s almost 720,000 social workers have amazing tenacity and talent and clinical social workers are the largest group of mental health providers in the country.
