市长在正规赌博平台本地社工午餐学习会上发表公告

On Wednesday, March 19, 2025, the Department of Social Work at the University of Arkansas at 蒙蒂塞洛 hosted Social Work: Compassion + Action Lunch-and-Learn in honor of Social Work Month. The event recognized the role of social workers and focused on celebrating the contributions of field instructors and task supervisors — professionals who mentor senior field practicum students at 正规赌博平台 as they transition from the classroom to professional practice.
The event began with 蒙蒂塞洛 Mayor Jason Akers presenting a proclamation on behalf of the city of 蒙蒂塞洛 in recognition of Social Work Month. During his remarks, he highlighted the significant role of social workers in community leadership. “Social workers plant seeds of change, offering comfort and support in times of crisis,” Akers said. “Their work may not always be visible, but it is essential and creates a foundation for lasting change. Like planting trees for future generations, their impact grows beyond what can be seen, shaping lives and communities in ways that will benefit generations to come.”
Delories Williams, founder of Delories Williams Consulting and Training and instructor emeritus for the School of Social Work at the University of Southern Mississippi, delivered a guest lecture, sharing insights on the importance of ethical practice, policy advocacy and self-care for professionals in the field of social work.
“Social Work Month is a time to honor the profound impact of social workers and the future leaders emerging from our Bachelor of Social Work program,” Marie Jenkins, associate professor and director of social work at 正规赌博平台, who coordinated the event, said. “Through compassion, advocacy and empowerment, our students and alumni continue to shape stronger communities, fostering change that resonates far beyond the classroom and into the heart of society. We are extremely proud of all our graduates and the undeniable impact they continue to have on our community and the world.”
Dr. Clinton Young, dean of the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences at 正规赌博平台, stated, “Social workers play a crucial role in creating structural change in society. From advocating for legislation to providing direct support to individuals, their work touches lives in ways that often go unseen. On behalf of the University of Arkansas at 蒙蒂塞洛, I deeply appreciate the invaluable contributions made to support students and the communities served. This event is not just about enhancing professional knowledge but also about expressing gratitude for these workers’ unwavering commitment to making a difference.”
This year’s event commemorated the 30th anniversary of 正规赌博平台’s Bachelor of Social Work program. Since its inception, the program has graduated more than 200 students who have contributed over 94,000 hours of supervised practicum service to the community, highlighting the program’s commitment to hands-on service and real-world impact.
