Social workers play a critical role in the health of our community by supporting individuals, groups, and families. Their goal is to ensure their clients have housing, know about benefits and resource programs they can access, and help facilitate housing and employment opportunities. For seniors, social workers work to reduce social isolation, counsel family members and friends about how to support aging loved ones, and ensure their clients receive the medical services they need. Social workers deserve a big pat on the back for all they do to support the most vulnerable members of our community.
