NASW Code of Ethics

NASW logoProfessional ethics are at the core of social work. The profession has an obligation to articulate its basic values, ethical principles, and ethical standards. The NASW Code of Ethics sets forth these values, principles, and standards to guide social workers’ conduct.

Current students should review and familiarize themselves with the code of ethics.
