Social workers are agents of change and at this juncture in our nation's history, our voices are needed more than ever. During the month of July, the NASW-New York City Chapter has partnered with the NASW-New Jersey Chapter and the NASW- Delaware Chapter to co-host a pair of webinars on social work and advocacy which will culminate in two days of virtual action July 28-29.

Using the tools provided during the two webinars, we'll be asking our members to take some time on July 28 and July 29 to make phone calls to their local, state, and nationally elected officials to advocate for police reform.

Feel free to drop in and participate when you can. We'll be hosting live sessions on Zoom and Facebook with NASW chapter leaders to discuss advocacy issues that must be addressed and providing resources and calls to action for social workers throughout New York City, New Jersey, and Delaware.  

Registering for this campaign will provide you with log-in information for all components of the NASW-NYC x NASW-NJ x NASW-DE virtual advocacy campaign, including the two pre-campaign workshops (7/16 and 7/21), live campaign stream on Facebook, and post-campaign recaps. This information will be emailed to you upon registration. 

We recommend and encourage you to register for each of the pre-workshops individually, as well as register for the Advocacy Campaign. This will ensure you receive reminder emails for each of the events.

Be sure to participate in our workshops in advance of our Advocacy Day:

Social Work & Advocacy Training on July 16 at 1:00pm

Virtual Advocacy Tools & Training on July 21 at 5:00pm

More information will be sent to you in you via email. If you don't receive your confirmation email, please check your spam folder.
