What is the role of a school social worker?
School Social Workers are trained mental health professionals with a degree in social work who provide services related to a person's social, emotional and life adjustment to school and/or society. School Social Workers are the link between the home, school and community in providing services to students, families and school personnel to promote and support students' academic and social success.
