We examined political efficacy of social workers and stud…
Giving a Voice to Those with Felony Convictions
Felony disenfranchisement, the practice of removing the right to vote from people who have been convicted of a felony, is at odds with the core values of the social work profession and an example of the structural racism built into our democracy. Historically, felony disenfranchisement laws were written into state constitutions and statutes to explicitly limit the political power of African Americans and other marginalized groups. The disproporti…
Creating a Culture of Voting in Direct and Generalist Practice
Social workers have an ethical responsibility to be engaged in policy change, regardless of their practice area or specialization. Voter engagement and the importance of political power through voting is often overlooked in the literature as a valid and important component of social work practice. Creating a culture of nonpartisan voter engagement in practice settings can help empower individuals who have been historically and intentionally disen…

Perceptions of Macro Social Work Education
Social work graduate education is responsive to and reflective of larger environmental forces, including economic and job market trends, regulations by diverse organizations, and student interests. A national online survey of macro social work educators (n=208) and macro social work practitioners (n=383) explored their perceptions of the intersections between these forces and graduate social work education. Findings indicate that while there rema…
Assessing Clinical MSW Students’ Attitudes, Attributions, and Responses to Poverty
The choices social workers make to assist people in poverty may be attributable to the attitudes they bring to their social work education but might also be attributable to the explanations for poverty they learned during their programs.

Students preferred stru…

Understanding the impact of state licensing on social work practice remains a critical concern for social work academics and professionals alike. Given the complex social problems of our times, social workers need to be prepared to intervene with the individual, in various structural dimensions, and to engage in policy debates at the core of human injustice and suffering. Currently, there is insufficient research on the impact of state licensing …

Special Education Experience of Older Foster Youth With Disabilities
Using state administrative data, this study explores the experience of older youth with disabilities in out-of-home placement in the special education system. Findings indicate that these youth differ demographically and have lower rates of school completion than their peers with disabilities in the general population. Of particular concern is the isolation of these youth into more segregated special education settings versus settings that encour…

Prevalence of children with disabilities in the child welfare system and out of home placement
Sustaining and Strengthening a Macro Identity
Macro practice focuses on community-level interventions, such as management, organizing, research, and policy advocacy. Despite social work’s deep roots in this type of work, macro practice and macro practitioners often practice without support or connections with other macro practitioners, and are underrepresented in the profession. In 2006, a group of social workers, including academics and practitioners, formed the Association of Macro Practic…

The themes are, Business as Usual in a Global Marketplace and Civilised versus Barbaric: Representations of Good and Evil. On a broad level these themes encapsulate the perceptions …
