Abstract

Social work as a profession has developed from diverse roots, providing varied services to all in need. Working in many settings, we portray for society how things are and how they can become. Supported by knowledge, skill, and distinctive values, social work serves as a professional mechanism for inducing societal change. It is in this sense that social work is a dissenting profession.
