The November election is on its way--another most important election of our lives. The stakes for social workers, clients (and democracy itself) are gigantic. When social workers vote, good things happen. But when social workers get out the vote, even better things follow.

As we do each election year, we're offering an Election Action Bonus starting today through November 5th.

How it works:

  • You get out the vote however and for whomever you choose. Phone bank, text bank, canvass, postcard...it's up to you.
  • Write us with the details (try to include a photo that records your doing the work).
  • We'll send you a coupon that will save you fifty percent (!) of SWTP exams and exam bundles. Huge savings--our way of saying thank you.

Not sure where to get started? Write us--we'll try to help out!

Taking political action isn't just a nice idea, it's an ethical standard in the NASW Code of Ethics. It reads like this:

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.

Lots if "shoulds" in there! This isn't supposed to be a maybe I will, maybe I won't kind of thing. Maybe you will--and we'll help make that easier with exam-prep savings.

Thanks in advance!
