- You may not alter or remove the “Social Work Tech” logos.

Use of Materials (Files) in all Contexts
I work very hard on making my materials, which includes handouts, interventions, etc. in various file formats that include but are not limited to PDF, PNG, JPG, and TIFF.
You may use materials downloaded from Social Work Tech (e.g. PDFs, PNGs, JPGs, TIFFs, et al) in your work under the following conditions:
- You may not put any of my materials on your server for direct download; link the material to the page or article they were found on Social Work Tech, but not the direct file on the Social Work Tech server.
For example: You can post a picture of the Self-Care Plan on your site, but you have to link it to the page for the Self-Care plan, but not the direct link for the PDF because I want people to read the article. - If you are encouraging people to use a free intervention that posted on Social Work Tech, you may link to the article (not the direct link to the file, e.g. PDF) from where they can download the intervention.
- You may not alter or remove the “Social Work Tech” or “Social Work Tech Blog” logos.

Academic Citation
While my work is intended to be informative, based on scholarly and empirically-validated social work practice, should you wish to use any my work for your papers, here is a quick guide to cite in APA format.
Per the American Psychological Association: For a passing reference to this website in text, the URL is sufficient; no reference list entry is needed.
Ignacio Pacheco is a social work professional that uses technology tools like the iPad in social work practice (https://socialworktech.com/).
However, when you are citing a particular document or piece of information from a website, include both a reference list entry and an in-text citation. The key to creating the reference list entry is to determine the type of content on the web page. Basically, provide the following four pieces of information:
Pacheco, I. (20YY [the year that page or blog post was published]). Title of page or blog article [Web Page]. Retrieved from https://socialworktech.com/[link to blog article].
The in-text citation includes the author and date (Author, date), as with any other APA Style citation
