Ideological Litmus Test in Social Work


This event at HHS (U.S. Dept. of Heath of Human Services)has been brewing since last year. Now, FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights in Education) has written a letter to HHS. FIRE claims that by only hiring social workers who graduate from colleges that are accredited by the CSWE ( Council on Social Work Education ), HHS is indirectly supporting an unconstitutional ideological litmus test. See the letter here.

Since this is the second letter to HHS, and two more organizations, NAS (National Association of Scholars) and ACTA ( American Council of Trustees and Alumni ) joined in the letter, perhaps Rear Admiral Denise Canton will investigate FIRE's claims.
