The Mission of the Northwestern State University of Louisiana Social Work Program is to develop competent, solid, beginning level generalist social workers. The program offers an appreciation of human diversity by developing lifelong learners whose values and ethics are consistent with the profession of social work. In this rural setting, NSU maintains a commitment of service to the professional community and populations at risk who suffer from oppression due to social and economic injustice. This program seeks to provide a caring, student-centered environment that encourages professional development.
