Description: This NASW-IL Chicago District CEU training will look at how to create culturally competent private practice that goes beyond therapy. Building an inclusive and culturally competent private practice isn’t just about providing therapy—it’s about creating a space where every individual feels truly seen, heard, and valued. From the very foundation, a successful practice must integrate cultural awareness, respect for diverse identities, and adaptive, responsive care. By prioritizing ongoing education, inclusive policies, and genuine community engagement, therapists can cultivate an environment where clients of all backgrounds—regardless of race, age, ability, religion, gender, or sexual orientation—feel empowered to seek support. A commitment to cultural humility and responsiveness not only strengthens therapeutic relationships, but also ensures meaningful, lasting impact in the lives of those we serve.

Description: A decade ago, Social Work Today described how social workers experience dangerous situations in their profession. Since then, the danger has greatly increased. One social worker told us her biggest concern was a client following her home. Today, any client can find their social worker’s address with a five-minute Google search. You go to great lengths to preserve your clients’ privacy – you need to be just as vigilant about your own. Our presentation provides strategies that individuals and organizations can implement that would result in a safer home and work environment.
