August 28, 2021
Join Virtually or In Person | How to Participate in the March Online With NASW

Did you know there are currently 400 bills in circulation nationwide that aim to restrict or outright suppress the right to vote? NASW is calling on the nation’s 700,000+ social workers to join us online on August 28 at 11:30 am ET to ensure the right to vote remains protected and accessible. Marches are scheduled virtually and in person in Atlanta, Miami, Houston, Phoenix, and Washington, DC. Please check COVID-19 conditions and masking requirements in your state.
