Project 2025 Update: 18 Months In

Time: 9:00 AM – 12:15 PM ET
Format: Live Virtual Training
CEs: 3 Category I CEs in Anti-Oppressive Social Work Practice

As federal policies continue to evolve, social workers are navigating new challenges that affect the individuals, families, and communities they serve. Changes related to healthcare, immigration, education, public benefits, data collection, and diversity initiatives have significant implications for marginalized populations and the systems that support them.

Join us for this timely and thought-provoking workshop examining the implementation and ongoing impact of Project 2025. Participants will explore how recent federal actions are affecting vulnerable communities, discuss emerging policy trends, and consider strategies for supporting resilience, advocacy, and ethical social work practice in a rapidly changing environment.

Through analysis, discussion, and reflection, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of current policy developments and their implications for social work practice, community well-being, and social justice efforts.

What You'll Learn:

• Examine recent federal actions and policy changes that disproportionately impact marginalized communities

• Explore how policy decisions influence access to healthcare, education, social services, and community resources

• Identify strategies for supporting resilience and strengthening communities affected by systemic inequities

• Discuss the risks and benefits of advocacy, engagement, and social action within professional practice

• Analyze emerging policy initiatives, including discussions surrounding Project 2028, and their potential implications for social work and public policy

• Strengthen understanding of anti-oppressive practice within the context of current social and political realities

This workshop is designed to help social workers stay informed, critically evaluate policy impacts, and identify practical ways to support the communities they serve.
