Supporting School Social Workers

The MASSW Golf Scramble event aims to support the professional development of school social workers in Macomb County. By participating, individuals can contribute to the growth and advancement of these essential professionals who play a crucial role in supporting students' mental health and well-being in schools.

School social workers are trained mental health professionals who shape the future of our youth by providing essential support. Their work extends beyond addressing immediate social and emotional needs; they also foster an environment where students can thrive academically and personally. By offering counseling, crisis intervention, and connecting families with resources, school social workers help remove barriers to education and empower students to reach their full potential. This collaborative effort with the Michigan Association for School Social Workers enhances our commitment to nurturing young minds, encouraging resilience, and promoting a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship in Detroit. Together, we are dedicated to creating a supportive ecosystem that enables students to pursue their passions and contribute positively to their communities.
