How do you like being robbed by social workers? I am disgusted with the NASW. There are many great people very qualified to do social work and who have done social work for many years. Some of these people I have trained and are some of the best in the field. Yet, the NASW in order to protect it’s turf has taken credentialing to a ridiculous bureaucratic high that prevents people from getting the help they need and prevents sociologists, psychologists and others from practicing without their redundant credentials. They are counterproductive and unnecessary. Stop trying to pretend social workers are more they they are. I taught social work and worked as a social worker for 20 years but I would advice any new social work major to bypass this field because of the NASW and go into psychology if they want to do counseling, or grief counseling, or marriage and family. The NASW is a bureaucratic entity with no merit. Do not join. Do not pay any dues to this sham of an organization. If they call again I'm not answering.
Read the posts for this phone number that calls that hangs up when I answer. I am a NASW member but I find this tactic to be rude and counter-productive.
I keep getting calls from here regarding my re-instating my membership in NASW. I was going to, but since I have been getting these calls so much, I think I will just chill out for awhile with my membership.
