(https://www.clinicalsocialworkassociation.org/Announcements/13380720) Social Work Compact Update as of July 2024
Jul 11th 2024, 08:39

As of July 9, there are 22 states that have passed the Social Work Compact! This is the fastest level of passage that any of the 14 compacts have achieved. The Council of State Governments (CSG) was very impressed with the speed by which our Compact has gotten passed.

As you know, the next phase of Compact development now goes into effect. The Compact will be run by a Commission, which will be created on September 17, 2024. Each Compact state will appoint a representative to be part of the Commission, and the Commission Chair and other leadership positions will be filled at the September meeting.

We are pleased to inform members that CSWA's Director of Policy and Practice, Laura Groshong, LICSW, has been asked to be the Interim Chair to facilitate electing the Commission’s permanent leadership. CSWA and other major social work organizations (NASW, ASWB, and CSWE) will have ex officio members on the Commission, if the Commission rules allow for this provision.

The Compact will officially go into effect in 12-18 months. The rules will be made available by the Commission as they are developed.

To see the list of states which have passed the Compact to date, go to the CSWA Home Page at (https://www.clinicalsocialworkassociation.org/EmailTracker/LinkTracker.ashx?linkAndRecipientCode=FxnDd%2BH7z3lDbRcULWOC86CQC66xbhHKfNb4Qr0jqYzccf%2BnsX6KuD7fnxnFimV9Ag017vcGpYidKkvx0UhDSSH3%2BfwaXnBgbZvPhcIjGJM%3D) https://www.clinicalsocialworkassociation.org/.  More reports will be forthcoming as they are available.
