Supporting the goals and ideals of a "Social Work Month" and a "World Social Work Day".

HRES 257 is a non-binding resolution recognizing Social Work Month and World Social Work Day. It supports the goals of these observances and acknowledges social workers' contributions to mental health, disaster recovery, advocacy for marginalized communities, and improving societal well-being. The resolution has no funding or policy changes - it solely expresses congressional support through symbolic recognition and encourages public awareness activities. It directly affects no individuals or entities, as it is a commemorative gesture without legal force.
