What better way to celebrate Social Work Month then by passing policy that will remove barriers and support social workers? The SUPER Act is in the House and Senate Ways and Means Committees, and needs your support to be brought to a vote! Join us for a virtual advocacy event on March 25th, at 6:30pm to share your support!
The SUPER Act (S.2590/H.4650),
has three components that will increase the number of master's mental health providers in the state, remove barriers, and incentivize social workers already in the field, overall bolstering our workforce and profession. The three components are counting supervision toward CE requirements, eliminating licensing tests at the Master’s level (LCSW) , and securing funding for paid internships for MSW students.
The test vendor for the exam has been ramping up their efforts to oppose this bill, so your advocacy is more important than ever. We would love to see the SUPER Act get passed this year, but that's only possible with your help! Will you join us during our virtual advocacy event on March 25th at 6:30pm? If so, RSVP here!
