Vision Podcast 97 - Dr. Dana Dillard and National Social Work Month

About this episode

Dr. Dana Dillard discusses National Social Work Month and a related student event at MSU.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Dana Dillard, assistant professor in the Department of Sociology and director of the bachelor’s of social work program at MSU. Dana and the Department of Sociology are celebrating Social Work Month with a student-focused event this week, Wednesday, March 18th, from 9:30 to 11:30 am in Bowen Hall 260. The event is open to social work students, faculty, alumni and anyone interested in learning more about the profession. In honor of National Social Work Month, I wanted to take the opportunity to highlight social work, which is often misunderstood and overlooked.
