Our Mission Statement

Mission Statement

Within an innovative public research university, the ASU School of Social Work prepares social work practitioners, researchers and advocates to lead positive change in the Southwest, nationally and globally.

We provide broad access to high-quality social work education, promote an inclusive learning community, conduct community-engaged and action-oriented research, and serve communities to advance social justice. Our school is dedicated to the principles of equity, inclusion, anti-colonialism, anti-oppression and anti-racism.
