Body cameras for all social workers to enhance accountability

Closed 458 signatures

What the petition asks

We think requiring all social workers to wear body cameras would enhance accountability and transparency. We think this would ensure that all actions taken by social workers are just, honest, and free of personal bias or manipulation.
We think this measure will not only protect families but will also protect social workers themselves from false allegations.
