JillB162 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Hello, I am writing an essay for graduate school in social work. One of the questions that must be addressed in the essay is as follows: What is the most critical contemporary social issue to be addressed by professional social workers? I have searched on the internet for some answers, but they are not very clear. I was wondering if anyone has any information (websites or written responses) regarding this question? Thank you so much for all your help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaggieDot Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hi JillB162! Yes, I agree with Lisa4420. I think the point is for you to form an argument based off of an opinion/your interests. What will be your area of focus going into your MSW program? Maybe thinking about what's most important to you as a future social worker is a good place to start. Good luck! I know writing personal statements is stressful--I'm in the same boat! junebug16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U-M_Detroiter Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I agree. I wrote mine about the issue that inspired me to go into social work. I don't think that coming up with a new innovative problem is as important as creating an effective solution to the one that you do decide to write about.
