A joint program that leads to a Bachelor of Social Work granted by Booth University College, a Providence education in Social Work will equip you to help individuals and communities affected by issues such as addictions, disabilities, homelessness, mental health concerns, unemployment and violence. You’ll learn to think critically about the world around you while thinking about the ways in which Christians can meaningfully and practically contribute to society. Upon graduation you’ll be equipped to work in settings such as family service centres, hospitals, mental health organizations and rehabilitation programs.
