Have Eight Minutes To Share Your Thoughts on Client Alcohol Use?

Feb 1, 2022

Social Worker Talking With Client.

We want to know what you know—and wish you knew—about client alcohol use. Eight minutes is all it takes to help us better train and educate social workers who serve women, families, and others who may be at risk for alcohol-related problems, including alcohol use disorders and alcohol-exposed pregnancies. Your responses will be completely anonymous.

NASW, along with other leading medical groups, is part of the Collaborative for Alcohol-Free Pregnancy, a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) initiative. In partnership with the NASW Foundation and the Health Behavior Research and Training Institute at The University of Texas at Austin Steve Hicks School of Social Work, we are working to address risky drinking among women by improving practice, education, and awareness among health professionals.

Visit NASW’s website page on Behavioral Health for more resources. Additional clinical resources are available through our Collaborative partners:

We appreciate your feedback and support for the NASW community.
