Many people struggle with basic needs of food and water, shelter, health care, and human dignity. All over the world, societies have created systems to create chances for people to overcome adversity. However, social services are often not known or accessible to those who need them. For those who need more resources, learning about resources and ways to break down barriers that inhibit human development and growth is difficult. For many years, social workers have worked to link individuals, families, and communities to the services available to them to give them the chance to participate in society fully. Along the way, they have also become advocates, advocating for individuals, groups, and communities seeking essential services. However, social workers soon understood that when services are unavailable to meet critical needs within their communities, they will also need to advocate for political and programmatic changes with larger systemic organizations, communities, and societies?
