If practice and theory become disconnected within agencies, organizations, or other settings, it must be recognized; and ethics may hold the key! Join Shantel Mayris, LMSW, for a vital discussion around the practical aspects of the professional codes of ethics and their role in navigating and advancing mission and client centered practice. We invite you to join us as we reconnect and reinforce important ethics guided methods to promote effective stewardship paired with professional self-advocacy within social work and mental health disciplines, helping practitioners remain true to a client centered focus. Participants will also enjoy an overview of ways to incorporate concrete mechanisms, tasks, and objectives to help address questions or apprehensions that may result from professional conflict or incongruency in a variety of settings.
