Do you enjoy working with people and are genuinely concerned for their wellbeing? Do you have a natural ability to listen to people without judgement or ridicule in order to help them overcome their difficulties? If so, have you considered a career in Social Work?

The University of Manitoba, Northern Social Work Program in Thompson, is strongly committed to equity and diversity within its community and welcomes applications from members of racialized communities, Indigenous persons, and persons with disabilities, persons of all sexual orientations and genders, and others who may contribute to the further diversification of ideas.

If you are a Northern resident for six months or longer and are committed to social justice, change and to a professional helping role, Social Work may be the career for you!
