For RSWs the space where they meet with clients is important for promotion and service delivery.  Some RSWs find it helpful to be located near potential referral partners, like family doctors or clinics. Others prefer to work from home or in other locations.  There are advantages and disadvantages to working from home and managing a separate office.  Setting up office in your home reduces your monthly costs and your daily commute, while renting an office may increase safety, position you closer to your target market, and give you a more professional appearance.

Wherever your office is, it should be easy to access year round.  Ideally, clients will be able to get to your office by public transit or park in a free parking spot near your office.
