Richard Jones (LC 1993) has been named a 2019 Social Work Pioneer by the National Association of Social Workers (NASW).
According to a press release by Case Western Reserve University, this award is, “one of the profession’s highest honors reserved for a select group of social workers who are role models for future generations of social workers, unique visionaries who have ‘explored new territories and built outposts for human services on many frontiers.’”
The Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences celebrated Jones on October 11 as part of their 2019 Homecoming festivities.
