Social workers in child protection bring specialized training and expertise to support families during challenging times. They're equipped to address trauma, family conflict, mental health concerns and help navigate complex systems.
What makes social workers unique is their approach. …They consider each family within their larger community context, understanding how personal challenges connect to broader issues — an essential perspective in child welfare work.
Our social workers are trained in anti-oppressive practice, culturally sensitive support and work to strengthen families while keeping children safe. They advocate for social justice and challenge systems creating barriers for the families we serve.
During Social Work Week, we recognize the expertise and heart our social workers in child protection bring to this vital work.

Meet Brianne, an Education Liaison at HPCAS and the feature of this month's Staff Spotlight!
For nearly four years with us, Brianne has advocated for educational equity for children in child welfare. Her role is unique at HPCAS, focused on advocacy that ensures positive educational …outcomes for each youth.
"I have always leaned towards advocacy work," Brianne shares. "I strive to ensure that every child in or from child welfare has equitable access to quality education, regardless of their background or circumstances."
What drives Brianne is creating educational environments where every child feels they belong and is supported in reaching their full potential.
When she's not breaking down educational barriers, you'll find Brianne on the volleyball court in winter and baseball diamonds in summer.
Brianne, your dedication to educational equity creates and impact that truly lasts. Thank you for your care and the heart you bring every day!
