When social workers vote, good things happen. We're running our every-election-cycle special for social workers who stand up to be counted. It works like this:
1. Send a picture of you in line to vote, you and your mail-in ballot, you a ballot stub, or with an "I Voted" sticker--all are great. Anything that lets us know you voted to info@socialworktestprep.com.
2. You get a coupon code that will save you an additional 25% off SWTP practice exams and bundles!
Our guess is that you were planning on voting already. This is just a little extra incentive--and an opportunity to boast a little.
And don't forget, our 50% (!) election-action discount offer still stands. Get out the vote by texting, phone banking, or canvassing, let us know, and we'll hook you up with half-off savings.
Not that you needed a reminder, but...
6.04 Social and Political Action
(a) Social workers should engage in social and political action that seeks to ensure that all people have equal access to the resources, employment, services, and opportunities they require to meet their basic human needs and to develop fully. Social workers should be aware of the impact of the political arena on practice and should advocate for changes in policy and legislation to improve social conditions to meet basic human needs and promote social justice.
(b) Social workers should act to expand choice and opportunity for all people, with special regard for vulnerable, disadvantaged, oppressed, and exploited people and groups.
(c) Social workers should promote conditions that encourage respect for cultural and social diversity within the United States and globally. Social workers should promote policies and practices that demonstrate respect for difference, support the expansion of cultural knowledge and resources, advocate for programs and institutions that demonstrate cultural competence, and promote policies that safeguard the rights of and confirm equity and social justice for all people.
(d) Social workers should act to prevent and eliminate domination of, exploitation of, and discrimination against any person, group, or class on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, marital status, political belief, religion, immigration status, or mental or physical ability.
That's from the NASW Code of Ethics. There's probably no other section we've posted more often. It's helpful for the exam, sure. But it's really helpful for everything else--purpose, practice, life.
Happy voting, good luck on the exam, and good luck to us all!
