Social Work: History of Social Work

NASW Pioneers are social workers who have explored new territories and built outposts for human services on many frontiers. Some are well known; others less famous outside their immediate colleagues and the region where they live and work.

The Social Welfare History Web site is a project supported financially by the Hansan Family Foundation, McLean, VA. This website covers historical eras, events, Social Welfare organizations, programs and personages.
