Social workers respond to human needs and problems from birth to death and practice in a wide range of settings: in preschools, nursing homes, schools, legislatures, hospitals and clinics, group homes, public agencies, private agencies and social change organizations. Within these settings, social workers are educated as generalist practitioners and carry a wide range of activities, roles, and responsibilities. Bachelor level social workers function as brokers and educators, advocates and community organizers, researchers and policy analysts, case managers, supervisors and administrators.
