Social Workers and Communication Barriers in a Community: The Story so Far

Abstract

Dear editor Successful communication helps us better understand people, their situations, and celebrate diversities, build respect and trust, solve problems, and share creative ideas. Social workers are professionals dedicated to improving the well-being of individuals, families, and communities. They work in various settings such as schools, hospitals, and community centers, helping people overcome social challenges and access necessary support services. Communicating effectively is essential for social workers to build trust, establish relationships, and ultimately make a positive impact in their communities. Lack of effective communication between social workers and the community might have serious implications. Furthermore, poor communication skills among social workers can contribute to harm and a lack of care in the community.
