ABOUT US

The Helen Rehr Center for Social Work Practice, Inc.
- named in honor of social work pioneer, the late Dr. Helen Rehr - is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2009 by a group of social workers concerned about the future of direct practice and the unique skills the profession brings to work with individuals, families, and communities.  

The mission of the Center is to help enhance social work practice within the framework of the person-in-environment and with a commitment to social justice. The Center carries out its mission through training programs, publications, services and projects that highlight the unique features of the profession and through collaboration with other organizations in effective advocacy strategies.
