The Alliance for Human Services, DuPage Federation on Human Service Reform, and Reaching Across Illinois Library System (RAILS) are partnering to create the Social Work in Libraries networking group. Together we seek to create a safe space for frontline and social workers (working in libraries and nonprofits as well as other stakeholders) to explore the intersection between social work and libraries. Subjects of interest include best practices for developing social worker positions in library spaces, including but not limited to logistics, evaluation, and implementation; developing connections between social service organizations and libraries; and creating a safe welcoming space for all library patrons.
This event is open to any library worker from any Illinois library. This event will not be recorded. For more information about this group, please contact Leslie Westerburg.
