Due to various traumatic incidents involving law enforcement and people with mental health and substance use disorders, there has been a heightened urgency to immerse social workers into the legal system, specifically within law enforcement agencies. NASW recognizes the importance of social work and law enforcement collaboration efforts and maintains resources related to the subject matter. Continuing education courses and specialty practice articles are available for viewing on our website, www.socialworkers.org. For social workers who are interested in social work and law enforcement, please see resources listed below.
