Purpose | |
The purpose of this organization is to create an alliance for people who self-identify as a person of color within the Social Work department by reflecting and respecting our experiences within and beyond the BSW and MSW program. The purpose is also to highlight the core values of the NASW Code of Ethics, such as “dignity and worth of the person,” and “importance of human relationship” by uplifting the voices of self identified persons of color who lack representation within the SDSU Social Work Community. The organization will fulfill this purpose by providing supplemental learning opportunities on cultural competency and diversity. The organization will also advocate for initiatives upheld by SDSU in increasing cultural and social diversity within the department of Social Work. |
