National Network of mental health professionals are providing free mental health services to the U.S. Troops and families affected by the current military conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Give an Hour is a nonprofit organization that has established a national network of mental health professionals in all 50 states, Washington, DC, Guam and Puerto Rico. Nearly 5,000 professionals have registered to participate in this critical effort. These licensed mental health professionals will give an hour of their time each week to provide free mental health services to military personnel and their families. In addition to providing direct counseling services, Give an Hour volunteers are working to educate the public and the military community and to reduce stigma so often associated with mental health. This organization was founded by Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, a Washington, DC area psychologist. To locate a provider, simply visit
www.giveanhour.org and use the zip code search. If there is not a provider in your area, contact
info@giveanhour.org and a provider will be located for you.

The Baltimore/Washington DC office has had several non traditional contracts including positions with health advocacy organizations which have involved such activities as coordinating health fairs and being responsible for responding to help line calls. These have been great opportunities for social workers interested in health education. Other non traditional positions have been with a large multi-service national organization; the mission of one of their programs is to address and assist with migration and resettlement issues. Placements with this organization have involved working with victims of human trafficking and with unaccompanied minors who have emigrated to the US.

Office of Ethics and Professional Review(OEPR)
Ethics Consultation
As a service to members, the OEPR provides ethics consultations for current NASW members. Ethic consultations are a resource for members who are experiencing an ethical dilemma. We do not provide advice or tell members what to do. However, we do guide them through the Code and point them to the areas of the Code that address their concerns. We provide dialogue and considerations that allow members to make ethical decisions. We may also refer members to the appropriate areas if their questions do not appear to be related to ethics but are more related to legal issues or standards of practice.
