Assessing how social work programs use their websites to convey a commitment to social justice
Social justice is a key tenet for the social work profession and education, calling for commitment to working with and for vulnerable and oppressed populations. In fact, undergraduate and master’s programs are accredited by CSWE, in part, based on fulfilling educational competencies related to supporting diversity and advancing social justice. Websites are one critical avenue through which social work programs communicate a commitment to social j…
“The doctors have more questions for us”
Transgender and nonbinary (TNB) individuals experience a variety of systemic barriers that impact their ability to access healthcare, often leading to negative health outcomes. Previous research has suggested that improving health literacy among marginalized communities may help reduce existing health disparities. Yet few studies have examined health literacy among TNB people and how health literacy and healthcare access may differ by urbanicity.…
Endorsement of Critical Social Justice and Privilege
Despite its central role in social work practice and education, little is known about how social justice is operationalized within the discipline. One aspect that may shed light on how the field engages the construct of social justice is through understanding more about recognition of privilege. This study examines how demographic differences, psychosocial predictors, and social work program variables may be related to increased levels of heteros…
Anti-Transgender Policies and Practices in Social Work Education, Accreditation, and Licensing
The social work profession is guided by the values of social justice and the dignity and worth of the person. The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) Code of Ethics requires that all social workers act in a professional manner consistent with these values. These values mandate that social workers “challenge social injustice on behalf of and in concert with vulnerable and oppressed individuals and groups.” Yet, historically, and contempo…
Committed to the Cause? Examining Social Work Education's Role in Supporting Ally Behavior for Transgender and Nonbinary People and Communities
Transgender and nonbinary (TNB) youth and adults are under attack in the United States, with at least 300 state-level anti-transgender bills introduced thus far in 2022 (HRC, 2022). Social workers, guided by professional values and ethics, play a critical role in supporting and advocating for TNB youth and adults, clinically and through mezzo and macro approaches. Given the current political context and the goals of the social work profession, un…
Identity Matters
Transgender and nonbinary activism among social work students in the US
Social workers are expected to serve and advocate for marginalized communities, including but not limited to transgender and nonbinary communities (TNB). However, the extent to which social workers meet this expectation is unknown. Using data from a 2019–2020 survey of students who were enrolled in U.S. social work programs (N = 725), this study examined the predictors for engaging in TNB activism, including interaction effects between subdomains…
Differential Sexual Behavior Experiences of LGBQ and Transgender/Nonbinary Young People in Colorado
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and questioning (LGBTQ) youth experience numerous disparities, including but not limited to access to health care, HIV risk, safety in school, educational opportunities, and family support. Historically, research on this community lumped together LGBQ experiences with experiences of transgender and nonbinary (trans/NB) individuals, despite sexual orientation and gender identity being unique identities. U…
