This webinar will explore complex dimensions facing social workers working with refugee and immigrant clients focusing on strengths and adaptive capacity. It will include historical context providing an overview of refugees, immigrants and the displaced populations; and national and local policies that impact direct practice. Particular focus will be given to factors in resettlement and transition, such as migration and adjustment, intergenerational conflict, the social work delivery system and the role of social worker with clients, communities and organizations.

Earn 1.5 supervision CEUs and connect with other supervisors! Every 3rd Thursday of the month from 12-1:30 p.m.

The symposium will feature one session every month between January and April 2022, concluding with our Social Work Summit in May 2022. Symposium content will focus on (re)defining the status quo of our profession. In each session, we will unpack a pressing issue and discuss bold approaches to meet the challenges of tomorrow. We will create space for multiple truths as we challenge ourselves to unlearn, evolve, lead, and follow into the future of social work.
