Preparing Students to Enrich School Communities
The USC Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work is one of the few schools of social work in the United States to offer a specialized curriculum and certification opportunity in school and educational settings. School social workers play an increasingly important role in fostering students’ social and emotional well-being for productive learning in the classroom.
This is a unique area of social work that provides an opportunity to operate at all three levels of practice – micro, mezzo and macro – addressing the needs of individual students, but also coordination and collaboration with the school community and leadership.
