Alignment with the Sacred Heart School of Social Work Mission
Consider what influenced your decision to pursue social work at Sacred Heart University. Please
read the School of Social Work mission statement below.
To prepare social workers—through instruction in integrated social work theory,
research, methods, and practice—to identify, dismantle, and resist all forms of social
inequality and oppression, particularly issues of racism and its impact on social work
practice. We are deeply committed to training social workers to think critically and
intervene against cultural, social, political, and economic practices that do not
advance human rights, justice, or the dignity and worth of every human being.
