CSWE’s distinguished commissions and councils offer all sorts of opportunities for members like you to not just give back to the organization, but also expand your leadership skills and make lasting connections with other social work education leaders.
You can help shape the work of CSWE by applying to serve one of its commissions or councils, which are involved in a variety of cutting-edge issues and initiatives. If you’re excited about global issues, we have a commission for that; if you’re interested in research, we have a commission for that; if you’re passionate about disability issues, we have a council for that; if your focus is on women and gender issues, we have a council for that. If you want to help shape CSWE’s annual conference or influence the CSWE Press, we have councils for them too. This year, we are proud to launch a brand-new council: The Council on Environmental Justice and Human Rights. There are even more councils and commissions to choose from.
