Social Work is an applied field, offering a scientifically-grounded, value-based approach to human services. Social workers work in a variety of settings, including schools, hospitals, mental health, juvenile justice, and perform a variety of tasks such as case management, client advocacy, and counseling. The profession of social work extends back to the late 19th Century, when various individuals and groups began applying a unique perspective and orientation to address the social problems of the time. While Mary Richmond and Jane Addams, two of the Founding Mothers of Social Work, had different approaches, each saw the importance of the interplay between individuals and their environment for understanding and ameliorating individually-felt social problems. This foundation of the person-in-environment perspective establishes the special contribution that social work and social workers have in our society. It is an exciting field, to study, to develop, and to practice.

Incarnate Word Academy is a Roman Catholic secondary girls' school located in Downtown Houston, Texas, United States.Incarnate Word Academy serves grades 9 through 12 and is owned and operated by the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament Congregation.Student bodyAs of the 2012-2013 school year, school's racial percentages are as follows: Hispanic: 32% White American: 41% African-American: 11% Multi-racial: 9% Asian/Pacific Islander: 5%HistoryLess than a few miles from where the Allen Brothers landed along the banks of Buffalo Bayou to begin their “great city” in 1836, Mother M. Gabriel Dillon and two other members of the religious order of the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament arrived just 37 years later in 1873.At the time, Houston’s streets weren’t paved and most residents did not yet have electricity. In fact the entirety of the town encompassed what we now know as downtown Houston. While its population was only around 10,000 residents, its Catholic leaders were already seeing the need for a Catholic school to serve the youths in the region. These three Sisters arrived and began what is the oldest Catholic high school in Houston. Although they had no real resources to speak of when they arrived, the Sisters came with everything they would need to begin the Academy – a deep desire to spread the Word of God and educate young minds.
