Ethical Use of Social Media PASWE NASW 2019

The revolution over the past decade with social media and communication technology has created many benefits and concerns in social work practice. The digital age and the permeating Internet culture presents ethical challenges involving social media and communication technology use with clients and colleagues.   Media such as, email, texting, search engines, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, videoconferencing, etc. can facilitate communication with clients.  However, these electronic innovations also pose numerous ethical challenges. including potential violation of confidentiality, boundaries, dual relationships, competence, and informed consent. This interactive workshop will engage participants in brainstorming guidelines in integrated practice settings to address and optimize ethical applications of social media and communication technology.  How this impacts the millennial generation as well as the seasoned generations of BSW and MSW students and social workers will be discussed as well.
