Clark, Coordinator Description — Social Work is 'working with people'. The social worker works with individuals, groups and the community who suffer the effects of poverty, broken homes, ethnic conflicts, physical, mental and emotional illnesses. Those who have been a part of the delinquency, crime and substance abuse community are also the social workers concern. The Social Work Program: (1) prepares students for beginning level competence as social workers; (2) prepares students for graduate social work education; (3) prepares students to take the social service worker licensing examination; (4) provides a liberal, interdisciplinary learning experience to help students in their understanding of and adjustment to living in a democratic society; and (5) provides continuing educational opportunities for the baccalaureate and paraprofessional social work practitioners. Education —The Social Work Program at Weber State College is accredited at the baccalaureate level by the National Council of Social Work Education. Only those students who complete an accredited social work program are eligible to take the license examination upon graduation. Many graduate schools of social work will grant up to one year advanced standing for those students who have graduated from our program. Career Outlook — The need for professional social workers has greatly increased due to our rapidly changing and complex society. Employment opportunities are expanding for social workers in the fields of mental health, corrections, aging, child welfare, medical, education, and public welfare programs. It is anticipated that employment opportunities in these fields for the licensed bachelor degree social worker will continue at a high level through the 1980's.
