Social work myths: a social worker's only job is to remove children from families

At Frontline, we know social workers make a powerful, positive and life-changing impact. But, unlike the work of other frontline services, stories of the difference that social workers make - the children and families they make a real difference for - all too often remain untold. In their place are often myths and misconceptions about what social work really is, and damaging portrayals of social workers themselves.
So, with our campaign we are taking on these myths. We want to tackle head-on some of the myths that persist about social work. And we want to give an insight into the positive power of social work to make a real difference for children and families. These stories need to be told.
