Peer 1: David Jones The six core values of social work have ethical principles which are the ideals to which each social worker should strive to meet (NASW,2017). Service happens when a social worker uses his or her knowledge, values, and skills to help those in need. Social justice is when a social worker attempts social change on behalf of those who can’t help themselves (Gallina, 2010). Dignity and worth of the person is showing respect to each client regardless of their social situation.
