BC Association of Social Workers

 CASW is a voluntary, not-for-profit membership association that supports and promotes the profession of social work and advocates for social justice. BCASW is one of ten provincial/territorial social work associations belonging to the Canadian Association of Social Workers (CASW). Through CASW we support the work of the 78-nation International Federation of Social Workers. BCASW was incorporated in 1956 and has branches and members (including students) throughout BC.

 

Membership in BCASW creates a synergy that strengthens your voice, supports your practice and builds a solid foundation for advocacy and social action. We provide information and support to social workers, leadership in professional and social advocacy and outstanding professional development opportunities. Ours is a strong collective voice that advances the interests of social work, communicates the vital contribution of social workers to their communities, and enhances the contribution of social work to social justice.
