Additionally, UPDATE includes content regarding new developments in the social and human services arena. These new and emerging
developments related to social work can include legislation at any levels, program development in the various fields of practice,
and changes in higher education. At this time, the national election is at the forefront. November 2, 2004 is ELECTION
DAY. Although there may be many important issues on the ballots at the county and state levels, attention is focused on the
next president of the United States for the next four years. It is imperative that we demonstrate leadership by voting and
facilitating others' participation in the election process. In these final days leading up to the election, we should use
every opportunity to education our communities and students on the important issues and the importance of exercising our right
to vote.
