For the workshop portion of this meeting, I will be presenting on
"Ethical Integration
of Christian Faith and Social Work Practice: What Role Do Core Christian
Beliefs
 and Values Play in Integration, and Which Ones?"

Presentation Abstract
This presentation will illustrate a variety of core Christian beliefs
identified
 by Alan Keith-Lucas and Catholic Social Teaching as particularly
relevant and useful
for integrating with social work practice, and the role such beliefs and
values 
should (and probably should not) play in the integration process. Case
study examples
and vignettes will help illustrate the value - as well as the potential
tension 
- sometimes created through the integration efforts of Christians in
social work.

For Additional Information
For additional information about this presentation, including learning
objectives,

We  hope very much that you are able to join us on September 9th in
