Trots

'Trots', pride, primarily refers to one of the last core values every person, even the most vulnerable, holds on to. As such, it is often the starting point social workers employ in motivating their clients. Secondly, pride is often the currency most valuable to social workers in their daily efforts with the individuals they care for; it is the common thread running through both lives, stitching them together in their humanity. Finally, Trots is an appeal to the greater welfare society to recognize that social work makes an essential contribution to the well-being of society itself.
