The Social Service Interdisciplinary Program offers the opportunity to customize your education and be part of a historic, Christ-centered community focused on social service.

This program is designed for students who are interested in helping others and wish to be part of a service community but do not wish to earn the credentials necessary to become a professional social worker. This interdisciplinary approach allows students to take courses that relate to their interests and passions customizing their education. Students in this program gain a foundation in social work basics, experience, and organizations as well as human and cultural diversity. Graduates of this program earn a Bachelor of Science in Bible degree. This program is not accredited by the Council on Social Work Education.

Motivated by the love and justice of Jesus Christ, graduates of Cairn’s social work programs intervene in the lives of those in need—counseling individuals, locating resources, facilitating groups, and promoting change within organizations and communities.

The world needs spiritually and professionally qualified individuals, characterized by grace and compassion, who provide competent interventions that change lives. For students interested in helping others, Cairn’s social work programs are essential preparation for both graduate study and employment in social services.

Historically rooted in Christianity, social work pursues the well-being of individuals, families, groups, and communities. Determined through a relationship with those served, interventions include counseling, resource acquisition, policy development, community organization, advocacy, research, and education. In an interdisciplinary professional and academic field, social work applies the theories of psychology, economics, science, and philosophy to meet people’s physical, spiritual, and emotional needs.
