SU instructor Sam Harrell, MSW recently published, "The Case for Mandatory Reporting as an Ethical Dilemma for Social Workers." Professor Harrell's article presents findings from a content analysis of social work textbooks on mandatory reporting of child abuse in the U.S. The authors propose that social work education should prepare students to navigate mandatory reporting as an ethical dilemma, contextualize mandatory reporting within other social discourses, and integrate macro social work ethics into practice.
