TEXAS SOCIETY FOR
CLINICAL SOCIAL WORK
Annual Spring Ethics Workshop
February 28, 2009

Please mark your calendar and join us for the Spring Ethics Conference sponsored by the Texas Society for Clinical Social Work. Andrew Marks, LMSW, and Dorinda Noble, PhD, LCSW, will present an interactive workshop on "The Muddy Waters of Ethics." Participants will learn to recognize ethical "hot zones" in clinical practice and develop strategies to avoid them, as well as engage in ethical auditing of clinical supervision and make ethically sound supervisory decisions, especially in the areas of parallel process and risk management. After this stimulating presentation, we will have a networking luncheon. In the afternoon, we will have "Legislative Updates" by Mark Hanna, JD, and Kathy Rider, LCSW, BCD.

Please join us as we return to the Lower Colorado River Authority in Austin, Texas. Registration starts at 8:30 a.m.

Mission

The Texas Society for Clinical Social Work was founded thirty years ago to address the “in the trenches” needs and concerns of social workers in clinical practice in agencies, hospitals, and/or private practice. The Texas Society for Clinical Social Work strives to promote excellence in clinical social work practice, and maintain the identity of clinical social work as a distinct profession within the mental health field. The practice of clinical social work is rooted in the basic values of the social work profession that includes a commitment to the dignity, well-being, and self-determination of the individual.
