      abstract = {Reflecting upon Mary Richmond’s early call for formalized  social work training to address the historical struggles of  the field, this analysis examines how American social work  education has addressed the paradoxes of help and harm  present in the field for more than a century. We examine  how, under the guise of benevolence and care, social work  has exerted social control and contributed to gendered  criminalization. We use the term carceral complicity to  extend the concept of carceral social work, illustrating  how carceral complicity has contributed to women’s  criminalization through the embedding, enacting, and  invisibilizing of carceral logics in social work. In  addition to describing how carceral complicity has been  addressed in social work education, we illustrate the  gendered nature of carceral complicity, highlighting how  women have historically and contemporarily been positioned  as both the proprietors and the recipients of carceral  complicity. In line with recent scholarship, we suggest  that through a transformative approach to social work  education we may disrupt carceral complicity and support  liberatory futures.},
