We are grateful to the social workers across California who continue to show up with compassion, professionalism, and a commitment to helping people move toward stability.

💬 Community Reflection:
What helps you sustain yourself in this work?

[California Interagency Council on Homelessness @Cal_ICH]

As we close National Social Work Month, we want to take a moment to recognize not just the impact of social workers, but the weight of the work they carry every day.

Social workers show up in moments of crisis, uncertainty, and deep need.

[California Interagency Council on Homelessness @Cal_ICH]

In work that asks you to show up for others every day, taking care of yourself is not a luxury, it’s essential.

[California HCD @California_HCD]

A milestone worth celebrating: Since 2023, Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention program grantees have helped more than 100,000 Californians move from homelessness into permanent housing! @CAbcsh @Cal_ICH

💬 Community Question:
What partnerships help outreach and housing navigation succeed in your community?

[California Interagency Council on Homelessness @Cal_ICH]

🤝Social workers meet people where they are: on sidewalks, in encampments, in shelters, and in communities.

Through outreach, social workers build trust, help people navigate complex systems, and connect individuals and families to housing, health care, and other supports.

[California Interagency Council on Homelessness @Cal_ICH]

Social workers help turn outreach into opportunity and connection into housing stability.

This Social Work Month, Cal ICH recognizes the professionals across California who are working every day to help people move from crisis toward housing and stability.
