Men's Social Work Practice Unit

The Men's Practice Unit was established to support male social workers and allow for networking among male social workers, developing a concentrated focus on recruiting more men into the social work profession, recrutining more men as members of NASW, discussing the issues and concerns that are unique to men in a female dominated profession, and develop programs that meet the needs of male social workers.
