What is a Social Worker?

Social workers are allied health professionals who work with individuals, families, groups, and communities to support them through difficult times and improve their wellbeing, playing a vital role in supporting the most vulnerable members of our society.

They provide counselling and guidance on a range of issues, including relationships, family dynamics, mental health, addiction, financial difficulties, and housing. Social workers also advocate on behalf of their clients to connect them with services and programs that can improve their lives.

Social workers are engaged in a variety of settings, including hospitals, schools, community organisations and private practices, these may also include government agencies or non-profit organisations.

Social workers typically have a bachelor’s degree in social work (BSW) or a master’s degree in social work (MSW), and some social workers also have a PhD or EdD in social work. Social work is a regulated profession, which means that social workers must meet certain educational and experience requirements before they can be licensed to practise.
