Which web site helps you learn about your area of practice, be it mental health, substance abuse, child welfare, etc.?  Why is it your favorite?  What can other social workers find there?

Let's start a conversation - I'm compiling a list of the best web sites that social workers use in an upcoming sw 2.0 column and would love to add your favorite site to the list.  Please list your favorite in the comments below or email me (karen@karenzgoda.org).

    Why "The New Social Worker Online" of course! :-D   Seriously, it does have a lot of great features. The ongoing discussion boards; the articles; the blogs; and links to even more great things.

    Another great source of links is "Prin's Links for Social Work Students" particularly for the Americans in the crowd.

    And for dark, bitter, sarcastic (aka the best) humour, there's Trench Warfare.

    I came accross this site: http://kspope.com/index.php
    It is for psychologists, however, it has a very useful information for social workers, like setting boundaries, ethical dilemas, etc

    For me it's www.TexasSocialWork.org It's a great place to network with other social workers in my area and share experience as well as information.
