Prof. Mimi Abramovitz, who teaches at Hunter’s Silberman School of Social Work and here at Murphy, has been working on a study along with co-coordinator Jennifer Zelnick that looks at human service workplace and practice trends.

Recently, this work has been picking up press: in November, New York Nonprofit Press wrote about the human service workforce study, while two recent podcasts from the University of Buffalo’s School of Social Work discuss the effects of privatization on human services. (See Part 1 and Part 2.) Finally, in September, WVOX 1460AM ran an interview of Prof. Abramovitz conducted by Allison Sesso, Executive Director of Human Services Council of New York City, on Human Service News and Views.
