Ethics & Boundaries Webinar: Emerging Ethical Issues in Rural Social Work Practice

NASW WI Chapter Webinar

E & B WEBINAR: Emerging Ethical Issues in Rural Social Work Practice
January 10th, 2025 - 9:00 am - 1:00 pm CST
Presented by Jess Bowers, MSW, CAPSW

Social workers and other helping professionals constantly face ethical issues and dilemmas requiring ethical decision making. Ethical practice in rural communities requires enhanced awareness of the special ethical considerations inherent to practice in closely-knit, isolated, tightly interdependent, small rural community settings. This workshop will focus on how the rural environment influences both the occurrence and the response to ethics conflicts. The course focuses on ethical decision-making and the utilization of codes of ethics while addressing the unique ethical needs of client populations in rural communities.

Learning Objectives:

Recognize and consider the unique ethical challenges experienced by social workers in rural practice settings.
Apply the NASW Code of Ethics, Guidelines for Ethical Practice as well other professional Standards of Practice as they relate to ethical decision making in rural communities.
Understand the importance of advocating for distributive justice in rural communities to address service gaps and health disparities among vulnerable client populations.
