Being elected by one’speers as an NASW Social Work Pioneer® is one ofthe profession’s highest honors.

Congratulations to the new pioneers.

Dr. Bernice Harper is my forever mentor. In life you need a true friend, a confidante, a supporter, a light that shines when things get dark. How lucky can I be that she is all of this to me!

– Martha Duncan Bond

Keep on Keeping on! A Never-ending tribute to our Pioneers and in memory of my dear friend Virginia Insley.
