In this session, we will explore the complex and often unseen challenges school social workers face, and the emotional and ethical weight that comes with this work. We’ll talk honestly about how policies, limited resources, and systemic barriers create moral distress and even moral injury that impacts students and also our own well-being and ability to practice with integrity. I’ll share stories and invite your reflections, so together we can name what it feels like to be both advocates and witnesses caught between student needs and institutional constraints. And as the federal and local landscapes shift, we’ll consider what these changes mean for our practice, our schools, and our communities. We will close with a commitment to embracing our own agency and taking action at the individual, local, or national level to move from moral distress toward advocacy, resilience, and lasting impact. Speaker: Dr. Tami Gouveia, DrPH, MPH, MSW
