From working to develop social policy to providing counselling to individuals and families, social workers are committed to social justice and the well-being of all members of society.

The one year HBSW is designed for students who have already attained an undergraduate degree in another discipline and wish to receive the training and professional qualification to allow them to enter into the profession of Social Work. The program offers the course content of the professional years of the HBSW program in a compressed, intensive 12 month time frame.

The H.B.S.W. program at Lakehead was developed to reflect a broad theoretical Social Work knowledge base, with emphasis on professional skill development for competent intervention with individuals, groups, families and communities.
