  • kate blassnitz BCASW membership sustains my need to be a part of the greater social work community. BCASW advocates with government and stakeholders for human rights and social justice, locally, nationally and globally. I like to read our BCASW magazine, Perspectives. I like being part of a communal voice that cares about community and professional standards. I'm proud to be a social worker and the work that we do and, for me, BCASW represents that pride. Thank you.
