This case study explored school social workers' roles and their perceptions thereof in relation to incidents that involved teacher-student sexual misconduct and exploitati

In response, the integrated student support (ISS) model has emerged as one effective school-based method (Moore et al., 2017). Notably, both school social workers (SSWs) and school counselors are uniquely positioned to implement ISS models (Olsen, 2016; Teasley & Richard, 2017
