Case study/Discussion Board National Association of Social Workers –Florida Cha

Case study/Discussion Board National Association of Social Workers –Florida Chapter’s Legislative Education and Advocacy Day (LEAD) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWBKIlNWl_M&feature=youtu.be Every year, the National Association of Social Workers—Florida Chapter organizes a two day visit to the State’s Capitol and Legislature in Tallahassee. Students and faculty representing the state’s 14-15 accredited schools of social work register and prepare in advance of this event. Prior to and during LEAD, students visit State Representatives and Senators in their district and/or State Capitol offices to discuss with them proposed legislation (bills) that is opposed or supported by Florida social workers. Prior to LEAD, the NASW-FL Chapter identifies a number of legislative priorities (15 priorities in 2021)—see attached—that serve as areas of policy-legislative interest for social workers. NASW-FL Chapter members work for several months to identify bills (or proposed legislation) of interest that fall under each of the 15 categories. As of 2/15/21, over 200 bills have been identified as bills of interest by the NASW-FL Chapter Legislative Committee. That large number of bills will be narrowed to 20-25 bills and, by early March 2021, the focus will be on 6-8 bills that have a chance to become laws (proposed legislation that goes through the legislative process and leaves the legislature for the Governor to decide to sign or veto).
