Our student hardship petition in collaboration with Paid Placements Aotearoa NZ is now live on action station!
We think it’s high time our students earned a fair wage for a fair day’s work during placement. For too long students have been struggling to make ends meat and complete their placements, and it means social work qualifications are getting further and further out of reach for people who would likely make brilliant social workers. And it’s our communities that suffer when too few social workers mean whānau can’t access the support they need.
It’s time to end placement poverty.
Please, please, get behind our petition and fight for the future of social work in Aotearoa New Zealand!
