Social Workers Supporting Communities: Afghan Refugees & U.S. Resettlement

NASW California

12 p.m.-1:30 p.m. Pacific

In summer 2021, the U.S. withdrew their military presence from Afghanistan and shortly after, the Taliban took control of the capital, Kabul. Over 78,000 Afghan citizens were evacuated from Afghanistan to the United States. Individuals and families are being resettled throughout the country, and a variety of organizations are helping to support their adjustment to life in a new society. This webinar seeks to equip social workers with the knowledge and skills to provide people-centered and trauma-informed assistance to this population. This event is open to all, and free to attend. This program is made possible through a grant from the U.S. Administration for Children and Families.

Join us for this free interactive webinar and learn:
  • Key dimensions of what led to the emergency evacuation of Afghan citizens;
  • The unique biopsychosocial factors that affect this group;
  • Community-based and government organizations assisting through resettlement programs and efforts; and
  • Opportunities for social workers to support Afghan resettled and repatriated communities.
1.5 CEUs available
