Prioritize Safety: Violence Prevention Strategies for Social Workers

Posted by GVT Admin on Apr 16, 2025 11:30:00 AM

Social workers are five times more likely than the overall workforce to sustain an injury from workplace violence, according to research from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Because they have little experience at the outset of their careers, most young and eager social workers tend to dismiss the risks inherent in the profession. Social work agencies are inclined to downplay the risks rather than give the profession a reputation for being as risky as policeman, for example. This tendency, however, contributes to the risk by not preparing social workers for the dangers they might face along the way.

We discovered that many people, even those involved in the nonprofit world, harbor many myths regarding the nature of nonprofits and their financial status overall. We have found that there are four major misconceptions that persist in distorting the public's perception of the heroic nonprofit community. Let's debunk these myths and try to alter slightly an uninformed public's loss of faith in America's nonprofit community.

Sharing is Caring

This blog recently conducted an impromptu poll of customers who encountered a Salvation Army veteran collecting donations in front of a local supermarket. Like most Americans, as it turns out, we had been dropping a few dollars into the ubiquitous Salvation Army red pot for many years around Christmas but knew little about the Salvation Army or what they did with the money. So, we surveyed 12 of the people who had dropped money into the red pot when entering the grocery store. Only 3 of the 12 knew the army was a charity "of some kind".
