The School of Social Work has built a program around the ideals of advancing human rights and social justice. It is expressly our intention to produce practitioners whose current and future work is grounded in a commitment to human rights, and to that end, the United Nations Universal Declaration on Human Rights is a central hub around which all else is connected.
The central mission of the School of Social Work at Monmouth University is to prepare its graduates for professional social work practice that strives to secure social and economic justice, advance human rights, and improve the quality of life of vulnerable families, individuals, organizations, communities, and nations on the local, national and global levels. This mission is obtained through the use of a strengths based empowerment process for families in a global context.
