<p>Dr. Chelsea Smith and Steve dive into the National Association of Social Workers (NASW), tracing its roots from Jane Addams’ Hull House to its 1955 formation. Explore how NASW’s Code of Ethics, now focused on racial justice, shapes licensure, education, and advocacy. Is it a force for justice or a gatekeeper? Hear raw Pulse of the People stories on immigration policy and workplace ideology clashes.

<p>PoliSocial Pulse Episode #6: Real Talk with a Conservative Social Worker - From my Texas barn office, I, Dr. Chelsea Smith, DSW, LMSW, LCDC, host my first guest episode with Steve, a Chicago-area social worker, on a chill Saturday afternoon. In a raw, unfiltered convo, we tackle the long-overdue, often taboo intersection of conservative values and social work’s gritty realities. With humor, heart, and straight-up honesty, we shatter stereotypes, setting the stage for Steve’s many return episodes to pulse with the people’s truth. </p><p><br></p><p>Thank you for sharing your honest <strong>pulse</strong>, Steve!</p>
