undoing racism through social work: nasw report to the profession on racial justice priorities and action


as our nation turns more attention to addressing its long history of systemic racism, nasw acknowledges that our profession has not always lived up to its mission of pursuing social justice for all. we apologize for supporting policies and activities that harm people of color, and we will strengthen our efforts to end racism in the social work profession and in society.
