Social workers are carrying more than ever before. Rising caseloads, limited resources, staffing shortages, and the emotional weight of supporting people in crisis have created unprecedented levels of stress and burnout across the field.

GPS for Social Workers was created in direct response to these realities. Grounded in evidence-based, trauma-informed principles, this curriculum offers a structured and compassionate approach to peer support that helps social workers break isolation, build resilience, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and community. 

This curriculum creates a supportive environment where social workers can talk openly about the challenges of their work, feel seen and validated, and access collective strength in a profession that often demands more than one person can hold alone. 

Whether implemented in hospitals, community organizations, schools, state agencies, or clinical teams, GPS for Social Workers helps transform isolation into shared humanity. Together, social workers can remember they are not alone, they are not failing, and they have the strength—collectively—to keep doing the essential work their communities rely on.
