Description: As future social workers, you’re stepping into the field during a time of deep social and systemic disruption. Mutual aid—communities coming together to meet each other’s needs when institutions fail or cause harm—is a powerful tool for justice and care. But mutual aid isn’t charity. It’s about solidarity, challenging inequality, and building new ways of supporting one another outside of broken systems.

This webinar invites you to explore how mutual aid, abolition, and transformative justice connect to social work values and practice. We’ll unpack the question: Can the profession evolve to truly support radical change, or will it stay tied to systems that maintain the status quo? Learn how you can be part of shaping a more just and liberated future through your work and advocacy.

Presenter: Chris Fike, MS, LMSW-Macro. Region 5 Representative on the NASW-MI Board of Directors.
