Do your friends lean on you for support and advice? If you have a talent for helping, Saint Leo's Social Work program can help you turn your passion into a career. Whether assisting a homeless man, foster child or disabled veteran, social workers make a world of difference in individuals’ lives, and enact widespread social change.
Explore social welfare policy, human behavior and practice methods. Intern at a social service agency to gain exposure to various practice settings and client populations. Learn how to empower individuals, families, groups, organizations and communities.
At Saint Leo—Florida's oldest Catholic college or university—you can bridge education with action through the Center for Values, Service and Leadership. The Center acts as an umbrella organization for the university's service organizations: AmeriCorps, Samaritans, RotarAct Club and Students Engaged in Rewarding Volunteer Experiences (SERVE).
Saint Leo’s Social Work program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). An advisory board composed of students, alumni and human service professionals guides the program, assuring the curriculum’s quality, relevance and currency.
