💙 Happy Social Work Month! 💙

Each year, I look forward to seeing the theme chosen to represent our profession — and this year’s theme feels especially powerful:

Social Workers: Uplift. Defend. Transform.

This is a moment I haven’t shared before.

In 2024, I had the honor of serving as a California Co-Chair for the national “Social Workers for Harris” campaign, helping mobilize social workers to inform and engage voters.

During Social Work Month, I had the honor of spending time with one of the most influential social workers in public service — Mayor Barbara Lee. A lifelong social worker, trailblazer, and global advocate for justice.

Social workers — go grab this book. 📚✨

The Rising Clinical Supervisor Log Book by Catherine Moore, LCSW is a powerful tool for trainees, associates, and licensed clinicians. I bought it to support a fellow LCSW — and instantly wished I had it during my ACSW years.

Support our colleagues.🖤

To everyone waiting on MSW acceptance letters — I’m rooting for you. 🤍
Read everything carefully. Follow instructions to the letter. Your story matters, but so does precision.
Our profession needs you — and I can’t wait to welcome the next generation of social workers.

Social work didn’t teach us branding, marketing, or entrepreneurship.

So we learn anyway — with hope, courage, and belief in ourselves.

We belong in these spaces too.
And when social workers show up fully, we change the narrative.

Self-care is not indulgence — it is ethical practice.

In 2021, NASW updated the Code of Ethics to explicitly include self-care because sustainability matters. Our wellness directly impacts the quality of care we provide.
