The Twin Cities Radical Social Work Study Group

• Our Meetings

• Join our E-Mail List

• Resources for Radicals

• 52 Simple Radical Actions

• Questions we've been asking

 

 

We are a group of social workers in the Twin Cities who met monthly to study and discuss Radical Social Work. Although we are not currently meeting, our e-mail list is still active.

 

We believe that as social workers we have a responsibility to work towards social structural change to resolve the fundamental issues our clients face, not simply resolving individual crises as they arise.

   

 

Our Mission Statement:

 

The Radical Social Work Study Group exists both to radicalize the profession from within, and to develop alliances with those who may not identify with the profession of social work at all. We aim to:

  1. Read and study, to promote an "informed radicalism"
  2. Discuss current events, solidifying viewpoints and building awareness of social issues
  3. Support the personal struggles of members to maintain a radical perspective in everyday life
  4. Make public statements of the group's position on local issues of concern
  5. Become a resource for social work education
