Problem:
Using APA citations, A case study reads:
You and a fellow colleague are longtime members of NASW and have worked together for the last 5 years. Your colleague considers herself to be a political conservative who has voted frequently for Republican presidential candidates, including supporting Mitt Romney in 2012 and Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. She feels that the NASW is too liberal and takes issue with what she perceives to be its pro-choice stance. Emily is a staunch opponent of abortion, believing it to be morally wrong based on her deeply held spiritual convictions.
Although she doesn't mind holding differing political opinions compared to many of her peers, Emily has observed (beginning in her graduate studies) that conservative social workers tend to be excluded from social and professional circles. Furthermore, some NASW members have expressed strong disapproval of social workers who share Emily's political views, even questioning whether conservatives should be allowed membership within NASW. This exclusion is problematic for Emily, as her independent practice depends heavily on referrals from other social workers within the association. Emily turns to you, a more moderate social worker with solid connections to NASW's initiatives, seeking advice on how to handle this situation and maintain her professional network and client referrals.
