• School Social Workers

    The primary role of the School Social Worker is to identify and assist students, families, and school systems to overcome barriers that interfere with learning through the use of assessment, counseling, consultation, coordination of school and community resources, and program development. 

    The School Social Worker utilizes knowledge of human behavior, social, cultural, and community influences to help create a positive learning climate and functions as a mental health practitioner/professional on the multi-disciplinary teams and provides case management services.

    School Social Workers will conform to the standards established by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) code of ethics.
