NASW Virginia and Metro DC Chapters 2026 Annual Conference
Co-Presenter | Ethics & Cultural Responsiveness | 📍 Newport News, VA + Virtual | March 27, 2026
I’m honored to be co-leading a session at the NASW Virginia & Metro DC Annual Conference focused on the real-world intersection of culture, identity, power, and ethical decision-making in social work practice.
This session explores how culture, identity, power, and lived experience shape ethical decision-making in real-world social work practice. Ethical dilemmas rarely show up in clean, clearly defined scenarios. They emerge in complex clinical and systems-based situations shaped by culture, identity, power, and inequity.
