Thanks for attending 2025 MN Social Work Advocacy Week & Day at the MN Capitol!
Despite the blizzard conditions, about 150 social workers made it up to the MN Capitol during Advocacy Week. They met their Legislators, awarded Senator Zaynab Mohamed as Legislator of the Year, and advocated on behalf of our profession and clients. Look at the pictures here!
If you missed our Advocacy Week Information Sessions, you can still register here and watch the recordings. Recordings will be available to view through 3/31/25.
Mark your calendars for March
