Region 3 Network Meeting

March Forth!

Suffragettes, Social Work & Clinical Practice

The World Tried to Change Women, Women Decided to Change the World

March 4, 2025, 4:30 to 6:00 PM via Zoom

"All men are created equal" was once a radical idea. Declaring that one need not be anointed by a Supreme Being to hold power was quite a bold statement in a world of monarchies and theocracies. Though the new American standard did not require the royal and/or sacred blood of its leaders, prioritizing and privileging one group excluded others, and no one gives up power willingly.

Shelley Berman, LCSW, DCSW, and Ann Block, LCSW, will focus on the clinical, political, and economic roots and results of the fight for women's rights in America. The intersectionality of congruent and competing interests will be explored and implications for current clinical practice environments will be identified as well as interventions clinical social workers can use to help clients transform uncomfortable emotional energy into positive treatment plan objectives.

Participants will gain a greater understanding of how the fight for women's rights conveys clinical practice issues including:



• Anxiety as a motivation for action
• Fear as the forward force, and
• Hope as momentum toward a greater goal.
