A Beginner's Guide to Anti-Racist Social Work
The Latino Alumni Advisory Board has developed a list of resources to support social workers in continuing their education and growth during this period of social distancing. This guide is meant to help you reflect on your professional — and personal — role in the fight for a more equal and just society.
The Latino Alumni Advisory Board would like to acknowledge and give a special thanks to faculty at The USC Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work for their invaluable guidance and support of this project. The Board would also like to thank members of the California Social Work Archive (CSWA) for their support.
We will continue to update this guide and we welcome any suggestions, critiques or other comments.
