As a profession, social work is called to empower and give voice to these disenfranchised and vulnerable individuals and give voice to those unable to speak for themselves. In this webinar, two leading authorities are interviewed to examine the current debate on immigration reform from a social work perspective. Panelists include: Kerri Evans, PhD, LCSW Assistant Professor, Department of Social Work University of Maryland, Baltimore County - Luis H. Zayas, PhD Dean & Professor, Steve Hicks School of Social Work University of Texas at Austin - Moderated by: Lawrence A. Palinkas, PhD Albert G. & Frances Lomas Feldman Professor of Social Policy and Health Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work, University of Southern California.59 mins 11 secsen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
