Dr. Steve Burghardt, LCSW, an activist and professor of social work talks about his committment to valuing social workers. He shares his thoughts fueling his book The End of Social Work and challenges the expectation that social workers labor under intolerable working conditions and financial strain. Dr. Burghardt advocates for the increased pay of social workers and addresses the leadership failures that create a culture in which they should handle burnout through self-care rather than collective action.
