Social workers have a lot to talk about when it comes to policy and legislation. As we enter year 2 of the biennium in Minnesota, it's crucial to stay informed. While a budget was passed in the last session, many other important issues remain unresolved or impacted due to changes at the Federal level. 

Join Jenny Arneson, LGSW, our Legislative Consultant, as we delve into the basics and explore the changes you can expect this session. This is a fantastic opportunity to enhance your understanding and engage with key topics impacting social work in our state.

Don't miss out on this informative session—your voice matters!
