About the CEC
The NASW-Illinois Chapter Ethics Committee (NASW-IL EC) promotes the quality and effectiveness of social work practice. The NASW-IL EC aids in providing understanding of our code of ethics in ethical dilemmas raised by the board, committee, and persons in the community. The NASW-IL EC is able to provide education and training to NASW members in coordination with the National Ethics Committee (NEC) and the Office of Professional Review (OEPR). Professional review is a collaborative process between chapters and the national office to provide a peer review of alleged unethical conduct of its members. Volunteers from the NASW-IL EC may represent the chapter in the proceedings of the National Ethics Committee, particularly those concerning Illinois state social workers.
The NASW-IL EC is responsible for hearing and recommending action on complaints filed in accordance with the association’s policy on jurisdiction of grievances. Volunteers from the NASW-IL EC may represent the chapter in the proceedings of the National Ethics Committee. Personal ethics consultations will be provided through the National Ethics Committee warmline.
