I nternational Social Work Solutions, Inc (www.iswsinc.org) is a small, non-profit organization dedicated to providing volunteer social work services throughout the world. In this time of Covid-19, many of our programs are now remote, using Zoom for conferences, trainings and program development. We are currently looking for one or more masters level or beyond social workers comfortable and experienced in administering surveys, data collection and analysis. A research background would be helpful. This project is in collaboration with a nonprofit organization located in Kasese, Uganda, whose mission is to support the Type 1 diabetes patient population in that low-resource community.

Mission Statement

Description
Social worker volunteers strengthen individuals, families and communities by providing practical solutions to the most vulnerable populations around the world. They address a myriad of social problems such as assisting in the rehabilitation of people who have been traumatized by violence, sexual exploitation, and displacement, as well as conducting training programs and psychosocial needs assessments for social service agencies around the world. Through global networking, social work volunteers bring social work practice to the neediest among us. Since the pandemic has made travel unsafe, ISWS has shifted to a remote model of supporting in-country programming with virtual trainings, assisting with program development and utilizing in-country staff.
