Petition Require social workers to wear body cameras when meeting families

We want the Government to mandate the use of body cameras for social workers during meetings with families, to help protect all individuals involved, and promote trust and integrity within the profession.

More details

We think social workers should wear body cameras during meetings with families to ensure transparency, accountability, and protection for all parties involved. This practice could help prevent misunderstandings, provide accurate records of interactions, and safeguard against potential disputes or accusations. Additionally, it could help promote trust between social workers and families by demonstrating a commitment to ethical conduct and unbiased practices.
