 About social worker

Social work is a rewarding career for those who are interested in working with people and wish to address social and community issues. Many people think that social work simply involves working with NGOs as a part-time job/activity. But in reality, social workers work with individual, communities, and families and deal with social issues such as unemployment, education, and poverty. Social workers contribute to the society by working for the upliftment of poor people, by working with children with special needs and promoting women empowerment.
