POST-GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE FOR SOCIAL WORKERS: CLIMATE WORK IS SOCIAL WORK | ADELPHI UNIVERSITY - COLLEGE OF PROFESSIONAL AND CONTINUING STUDIES

Offers a course, developed by the Institute for Social Work and Environmental Justice, that will incorporate practical and actionable curriculum for social workers, across the practice spectrum by addressing the effects of climate change on the most vulnerable populations. Exploring strategies applicable at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels through the lens of the Grand Challenges of Social Work, participants will examine current and potential interventions that support resilience in clients, communities, and the environment. In this project-based course, each participant will craft an intervention that brings the principles of environmental social work into their personal or professional life. Three-course assignments are carefully designed to guide students as they build these interventions. Like seeds, these interventions are planted during the 10-week course to grow and actualize in the future. Upon course completion, participants will be awarded a formal certificate of completion, 24 CEs and a digital badge. Call for detailed information.
